In a world dominated by agents, nothing tends to surprise me in football, as those guys will do absolutely anything to squeeze every penny possible out of a deal.
However, the latest clause to emerge in Ravel Morrison’s contract is, not only a bizarre one, but also a worrying one.
The Telegraph is reporting that, should West Ham receive a £10 million plus bid for the England U-21 international, then the Hammers are forced to quadruple Morrison’s wage.
The former Manchester United is believed to earn nearly £15,000-a-week which means – if my mathematics are correct – he will stand to pocket almost £60,000-a-week.
This latest news comes just a month or so after his £18 million release fee clause was reported. You have to wonder, especially with the possibility of relegation growing, how much longer the Irons can hold onto their rising star?
Can you blame him leaving anyway with the dross served up by allydyce. If he goes arsenal would suit his playing style and good luck to him. Maybe one day we will get owners and a coach who actually knows what their doing and not trying to cut corners and just make money selling a ground that was our home and renting another till they sell up.
Nothing surprise me anymore with Gandalf & the hobbit or with BFS there going to stay until they have f**k our club left right and centre, i feel so down about my West ham.
If your a true west ham supporter then have faith wether we in relegation or not be a true IRON!!!
