That assumes I value Curtis Jones. I dont.

Ketwig is arse and you know it. If one has to be sold to accommodate Wirtz I’d just rather it was Jones and that the boy stayed. Bollocks intact.
You’re just jealous of how handsome Curtis is.
Your mum’s got a signed Ketwig jersey—and it’s not autographed with a pen.
Because he's better than Jones.
We need squaddies alongside the stars, but only if the manager's prepared to use them. If Slot doesn't rate Harvey (even if some of us think he should) there's ultimately no point keeping him on.
Different players. Jones is more of a midfielder than Elliot.
£40m with £50m buyback clause with Elliot going somewhere like Dortmund, Leverkusen, RB Leipzig works for me.
Have to agree we need Jones more than Elliott. We're going to need players who can drop back and cover the fullbacks when they bomb on, as well as progressing the play from deep. He's also pretty adept at covering RB and can do a job at six against weak sides intent on sitting back.
Jones has flaws, but is can do that far more effectively than Elliott. He's not going to kick up a fuss for game-time either. He's a frustrating player but he's also one we're pretty fortunate to have, IMHO.

Tbh it's a smart way to try and capitalise on teams with lesser transfer budgets. I think we'll sell with a Buy back, possibly to Palace if Eze leaves
Thinks he's saying 40M fee with a buyback clause. 50M fee without a buyback.
Cants disagree. Jones is a jack of all trades player which is invaluable in a smaller squad
Could be. Sounds like he wants to move abroad though.
Wouldnt blame him. Just have to see if anyone actually comes in for him from abroad though
The buyback will be more like £60-70m
Quansah was £35m with a £50m buyback, so it’s not far off the realms of impossibility.
I’d be looking at closer to £60m with no buy back.
That works too is the sell price is close to £50m rather than £40m.
Id be confident Hughes will get a good deal for us over the line - and there’s likely to be a reasonable amount of competition for him - so we’ve got some leverage.
Quansah was 30 mill £ with a buy back of 52 mill £ +.
The add ons can't be counted yet.
Elliott would be 40 mill with a buy back at 60 mill + I reckon. Still decent if he turns out ace.
Yeah, I’m not going to quibble of a few quid here and there - the original figure were stuff up by having half in £ and half in € - but £40m/£60m is fine.
