Good rumour to start Jake. Could he be the one to finally unify the clubs?

A mate who is a city fan told me. Said it was on twitter

It's fairly common practice in football for a team to offer a player a long contract purely so that they can get more for his transfer in the next window. Especially when a team like Man United are involved, because you know they will stump up the cash if they want someone.

I'm not a legal expert, however I presume Harry M's contract extension will not affect the sell on clause. The extension will just change his personal terms and contract period.

Otherwise, if sell on clauses became null and void with a contract extension, all clubs would immediately offer a contract extension to a player as a loop hole of getting around the sell on clause.

Either way, as mentioned earlier, the Allams will most likely factor in this his sell on value in any future sale of City.

Its sensible business by Leicester to get HM to sign a longer term deal with the knowledge a club like Man Utd are after him as it ups the price when the inevitable happens. The sell on clause still remains so if any deal goes through and at a higher cost then Hull City get more money which is unfortunate as it may mean the Allams stick around a bit longer to drain the last drop of blood out of City.

SMC lose £1.9m in the latest accounts, and now owe "Hull City" £13.6m.

City made a profit of £23.7m in the same period.

Allams will go when the last parachute payment is paid they’ll squeeze the last penny out of it

I agree they will go in January

Only if someone is buying. Even after the next parachute payment there is still a big chunk of debt across the club and smc

I was talking to my brother in law who’s a massive city fan (he loves to tell me on CC final day 1980 he was at city) that they’ve taken upwards of 80 million out of the club during there time and could actually hand the club over virtually for nothing and that there not that interested in a sale as such

City currently owe the allams £63m and the smc debt is £16m with around £15 net transfer fees due and £30m or so in parachute payments left so they're far from repaid

Since the allams took over City have received at a conservative estimate about £500 million from the premier league and they haven’t exactly gone on a spending spree
