Given his relative lack of importance to us in terms of the pecking order, plus the Pandemic, I imagine we end up entertaining "compromise" bids of £6m or so.
When you've accrued roughly £57m for Ibe, Solanke and Brewster though, it's understandable why you might stick to your guns.
Saying that, I think most of us would have "settled" a bit with the Wilson/Grujic bids so that we could have bought another player last Summer.
It's a balancing act and we won't always get it right.
