However I assume that can be overridden if the parent club wishes to sell said player, which makes me believe we've buyers for both.To recall them early and then sell them to another club in the same division is bad form really. Reeks of PL bully boy tactics. Another rotten consequence of FFP that definitely isn't in the interests of the game and/or player development. For the player the chance of a permanent move has got to be better than the uncertainty of a loan surely.

Tis better to have loaned and lost than never to have loaned at all.

It's not often players have much of a say though that was Abramovich Chelsea where budgets etc weren't real. Wolves were in a higher division so could be justified a lot easier. Maybe other lower league clubs wont take kindly to the stunt we pulled with Azaz and we will struggle to loan out players to clubs that will treat them well. Penny rich (£2m), pound poor vibes off it and it's being driven by the FFP incentives to sell academy players for profit.

If what the Plymouth manager is saying is true he’s competing for a first team spot with us.

Makes sense. If he does well, we can sell him to a PL/Championship side to aid the FFP.
I've always liked the look of KHH and was hopeful he would turn out to be the best of all of that generation. It hasn't looked like it was going to happen for him, but I'd love to see him take his opportunity if he's going to be with the first team for the rest of the season.
