Best of luck to him. Think he'll be disappointed though....

When he starts bagging 20+ a season, do it.

If he wants half that he'll be on his way. Also if he really wants 100k a week he's clearly being badly advised. Not even the big clubs would risk anything more than 35-40k a week on him.

Was reading about Alderweireld at Spurs being on £50k and thinks he deserves the same as Kane, who is rumoured to be on £100k. It kind of puts Gray's demands in perspective. He's scored 94 goals for Spurs in three seasons and 8 goals for England. Gray, I guess is drawn into this 'celebrity culture' with his bit of stuff being a 'pop star', albeit I use that term loosely. If he thinks he is worthy of an £100k a week contract, then he's either delusional, he thinks he is better than he is or his agent is badly advising him. Either way. I can't see any club offering him that, when as stated above. Kane is only commanding that at Spurs and Gray is a world away from being that good.

Well the way I'm guessing he's thinking;

If he signs a new contract, his value will go up based on the length of contract. He clearly thinks this is his "share" of any potential incoming transfer fee.

Unfortunately, at £5m+ a year on wages, I don't see any 20+ million offers coming in so it's not going to work.

Going rate for a Premier League striker going to a cash rich club like Everton. I would think Keane will be asking for the same.

He will never get 100k a week, he isn't anywhere near that level and I doubt he ever will be. He could certainly get a few more goals if we had a midfield to thread balls into our strikers.

OK then...If thats the route he wants to go down lets set his transfer fee at 50 m...I would say thats appropriate for 100.000 a week ! Any offers at that price ? Maybe not !

Big decision though - do you accept what's on offer or do you let him run his contract down and walk for nothing in a year's time?

Claret Tony....No,I wouldnt let Gray run down his contract and leave for nothing in twelve months...His body language for a long time has suggested he is unhappy !
Clearly if he has demanded 100.000 a week he knows we wont be stumping it up so I was tongue in cheek suggesting an equally ridiculous price for him...

No club will pay those sort of wages for him and he will only know too well that burnley wont give him anywhere near that figure so cant see it being utter b.....ks from media sources. Ok, he will more than likely leave, but i think he will be warming a bench a lot more should he join a big club. offer him a contract extension and up his wages to a respectable level and wait for his inevitable answer

Rumours are that Barcelona and Real Madrid have an interest in Harry Kane,totally different level from Andre as well as he has done for us.
