Mikel San Jose

Why did we sell him? Homesick? Not good enough for us?

Do we have a buy back close? or a sell on fee?

He was a very solid part of Bilbao's run through Europe last year, and at 22, he's still got the best years for his career ahead of him.

He wanted to play games i think so Benitez shipped him off for a fair bit of profit.

I always liked the look of him and Ayala, they both looked like they could have been good enough with a bit of perseverance.

He's had to withdraw from the Spanish Olympics team due to chicken pox

I'm sure we didn't get much for him ...

If I remember correctly, it was indeed a healthy profit. I think we got him for 300k and sold him for ten times that (could be in Euros).
That was without add ons which were said to be substantial.

i guess that's the key - i guess there's no buy back clause, so let's hope the sell on fee is 25% or so ...
