I think he's a decent player but not convinced enough by him that we should fork out a sizeable fee. Missed a lot of games through injury and when fit not been good enough to start, and this is never a good sign during key years of his development. Plus potential talent from a "big club" is always way over priced. Think there's better options out there tbh.

Saw a piece on newsnow Arse are looking for 40 mil for him . Having a fvcking giraffe they is .

Is this on the table Heath or your thoughts? Like it either way.

This is a classic example of big club over-valuation. If this player is correctly valued at £35m, then Michael Olise was the Billy Bargain of the century.

And then there's the "cash in pocket' phenomenon i.e clubs know we have cash to spend ergo their sale prices go up accordingly.

Agree. Always remember Brewster , the Liverpool striker, going to Sheff Utd for £23m about 4 years ago and thinking that was a big premium for as player who never kicked a ball in the Prem.
4 years later he's scored 4 goals in 70 appearances. Prices have risen by about 50% since then so that's c£35m at today's prices.

Apropos Brewster I understand that in addition to the £23.5 Mill fee there was a 15% sell-on clause and a buy-back option for 3 years.At the Chelsea academy, Brewster, Gallagher and Guehi were very good chums.
