Man city might get some of the 20 % we owe Middlesbrough on a sale. But there won’t be anything between us and Man city. So it will be all about whether we can inflate his fee to reflect what we want NET.

Alternatively, we can convince him to stay

^^ I think that probably refers to what Boro had to give to Man City out of the £8m + £7m.

Yep, but the 25% sell on would be based on the total Boro received from Villa. If that total goes up, because Boro get a sell-on fee from Villa if we sell Rogers, then they would be entitled to 25% of the additional profit that Boro make.

Not necessarily. It could just be that Man City negotiated a 25% sell-on clause with Boro, which Boro paid when they sold him.

Any fee for him would have be well North of £100M I'd have thought, judging by what certain players were going for last summer?
I will be livid if we sell him tbh..

It will depend if there is a release clause. If he goes and how much. Not seen anything definitive either way.

After the Grealish saga with his release clause being common knowledge at C115y, surely we wouldn't be so stupid to have it written into another player's contract.  Surely?

[Crown Hill]

Depends on the negotiating power of the agent when he got his new contract.
