It does and doesn't 61.

I am hearing two things, that piss me off but explain it.
He signed a new contract, but it appears there was £10 million activation clause in there. Now they may have believed that no one would bid that for an 18 year old, but Liverpool did want Hughes for £15 million remember, ;-)

Also, the bid was accepted without quibble and Burke then told to talk to them, which appears to have confused him.
I don't blame the kid, but Fawaz has gone to far this time.
Like Es*** says, if Assombalonga goes that's it, they'll be fireworks.
He needs to come up with one or two signings very quickly.
I am hearing Sako, from Palace. Just a rumour, but it may get him out of jail.
