Yeah, its hear say mate, i think the final offer from Villa is reported to be around 8 million? plus add on's like appearances over so many years taking the valuation to around the 15 million mark, then you have to take the sell on clause from city which is reported to be around 20%? the deal isn't worth it for a player who is still young and just starting to show promise.Rejecting £15m for Rogers is bordering on stupidity. I don't know a single Boro fan who believe he's worth even half of that. Signed for £1m in the summer from Man City, 30% sell on and he's scored 2 goals in the league this season. When everyone's fit, he doesn't get in the starting 11. Crazy.
if Villa come back with a figure between 12-15 million without all the clauses that might not happen?. he will probably leave.
They are trying to unsettle the player through the media which is underhanded, knowing Gibson and how pig headed he can be about this sort of thing, he might tell them to do one completely.
