Surely the club would be asking for more than half a million?!

This was discussed in a previous thread and it was suggested that our club had not put a price on Cole and that the figure of £500K was purely paper talk.

I think that anything less than £1 million and we are giving our star striker away too cheaply BUT our excellent BoD will determine his worth to the club and privately have a figure in mind.

They will not let him go just to have money in the Bank as our survival in EFL1 is as much down to Cole as it is for the rest of our squad but Cole is a very influential member of that squad.

It's a tough calculation isn't it? Not quite as simple as the value of L1 survival against the prospect of a relatively large sum of money before the end of the month, but possibly not far off it. Of course it would be tough to stop the player if he wants to leave anyway and there are bound to be incentives. I agree that the Board seems to have a good handle on everything. If Cole goes and they do get a decent figure, hopefully a good percentage will be reinvested in the playing staff.

Assuming there’s no buy out clause in the contract, then the fee has to be £1m+. We have Cole under contract for another season (at least - who knows if an optional extension exists), so the club is well protected. Unless we get a silly offer I think we’d be foolish to sell at this stage - as the divisions top scorer I don’t see his value diminishing in the space of 5 months. He’s our only reliable goal scorer, so any chances of staying up would evaporate if he was sold…. And if he was to keep us up that value might even increase… win win win!

He probably just makes stuff up for click bait to draw in gullible fools and bombarded them with adverts based on their internet search history (I dread to think Neil!). The article doesn’t appear to be reliable at all, and comes across as particularly baseless. It is worse than paper talk, and should not be presented as a anything resembling a remotely reliable source.

500k value is madness, wait till the summer when he's scored 30 goals and his value would rocket past 1M, best for both club and player
