I had a bit of a search and found whispers of their interest from two weeks ago.

I'm sure the club has been aware and used the time to pursue contingencies. May even be why we haven't announced another forward yet, if it depends on whether it's a squad addition or a Jatta replacement.

I can't believe we'd sell him without being ready to replace, even with a silly money offer. But equally you have to think we had targets for different contingencies months ago.

Whatever happens, it's been a pleasure having him at the club. I really hope he stays.
