All good points really. But my view is if he doesnt sign this summer we may have to consider cashing in. We cant risk going in with 12 months left next summer.

If we get two more years of good service from and he decides that he wants to move on for a massive signing on fee, best of luck to the lad.

With 2 years left?Good question. it depends. If he isnt willing to sign this summer then if a big offer comes in i would reluctantly take it as gives us the whole summer to sign a replacement. January in 2026 would be horrible as its difficult to replace him in January. The following summer he would woeth significantly less and may want to stay and leave on a free like somni says above. We would be powerless as a club.
Me, I'll just enjoy him for as long as we have him. If he walks away for nowt in 2027 that will be five years we've had out of him. Can't complain at that really.Realistically, we might look to get a decent fee next year if he won't agree an extension.Talk of selling him this summer is nuts.
Boubacar is fantastic He reminds me of McGrath not particularly his playing style but just the fact he turns up every matchno real fanfare, plays, MOTM every game And we sort of just take it for granted
