    Current deal is £123 million per year.

    I love the fella but Jesus H.

    2.4m per week. Nearly 60k per hour based on a 40 hour week.

    I can see Wigan or Bolton being on for him.....

    The thing is he probably brings in more than that in sponsorship etc. even discounting the impact he has on the pitch, so it’s obscene but makes sense from a business point of view.

    When I first read that, I thought is was £12.3 million a year, and thought that was pretty daft. Then I re-read it and nearly fell off my sofa.

    We could still sell him on for 200k in January to Brentford.

    It’s obscene. Bond villains don’t have that much money.
