We’ll get the full £9m, easy. A prem club will pay this for him. He’ll have a few options.

I can’t see that.

 

He hardly a line up of suitors when available on a free last summer.

Shows no interest to continu e at the club. One of the worst passers in the team. Him and Soumare sh ould be sold as the packaged deal. They are both atrocious.

Honestly? I’d take 2m 

He should be good in the Championship so that wouldn't make much sense.

 

Ideally we'd keep him if nobody matches the clause, and then sell him next Summer for whatever we're offered.

 

Can't do another PL season with him though...painful to watch.

He hasn't been good for like 4 or 5 years now though. Why would anyone pay £9mil for someone who was good half a decade ago? May as well pay £9mil for Marc Albrighton in that case.

£9m to fill a squad place as a midfield rotation option is peanuts for a mid table prem side.

 

I'd have thought Fulham/Bournemouth etc will be all over this.

even the likes of Palace, Everton would look youd think

Horrendous decision to give him a 3 year deal at the time, he mentally checked out of the club the day he decided he wanted away but of course no one came in and we were daft enough to line his pockets for another 3 years!

Speaks volumes this article is out there. Just release the information and get his name out there. He clocked off about two months ago which is a deep shame as he’s been a very good and honourable player for the club 

Not to mention the 18 months where he genuinely didn't look like a professional footballer. 

 

Lot of revisionism on here for Wilf, or maybe our bar is just that low now. 

 

In hindsight, that period he was attracting interest from Villa and being quoted at £50m was the time to cash in. He had all the best interception and tackling stats in Europe then. 

 

The issue is with players who just stop the ball and win it back is when they stop doing it all the time, they are useless.

 

At least he was so much of a better footballer than most the championship that Enzo was able to play him further up. Be great if we could keep him for next season but I also wouldn't be bothered to see him leave after how he's been since he come back from Injury. Like anyone else, if you don't want to be here then leave. We have too many characters like that now.

No one that has watched him the last 3 seasons is paying that money for him. Then there's the issue of his injury record. 

 

Don't forget he reportedly touted himself around when his contract was last up, got no offers that he fancied (IE nothing in the prem, when he would have been a free signing), and then signed for us again. He's older and shitter now and clubs will need to pay £9m for him. 

Appreciated, still think he will  be picked up for the full release clause by a Leeds, Burnley, West Ham, Brighton etc, or that kind of level, which need a midfielder berth filling for relative pittance (in Premier League terms)

He had a good Championship campaign in a differing role

I'd imagine he is on good money here, which will be why he resigned rather than moved on. I also think he has enjoyed his time playing for us.

 

9 million would be great business for the club. I'd imagine he will be on a reduced wage in the Championship so it will be easier for him to move on. 

 

Ndidi has been a great player. Often we've been a much better team with him in it. I'll be sad to see him go but I feel 9 million would be more beneficial to the club.

This is the same club that spent £20-25m on Oliver Skipp...are you sure about that?

Think we've always looked worse without Wilf, even when he hasn't been playing well himself.

 

I'd take £9m, actually think that release clause makes it super easy for the club to say take it or leave it to anyone interested. 

 

I wonder if he's now more of a box to box midfielder, as we saw under Enzo last season and even at the start of this year, his best form was under Cooper playing further forward
