ToffeeCup said:the article says 22 or more.....the 'or more' exists for a reason. If Everton made it clear to interested parties (of which we are lead to believe there are many) that they had a bid of 22 they were considering, if someone bid 26 what would stop us from accepting that bid and letting the player speak to that club first.
The point is, if a CL club comes in for that amount of money and no one else does then he can still get the move he wants.
I see it as more of a minimum price to be honest.
But..... if you are going to believe what you read in the papers.....the you should believe all of the story....not just the bit you don't like the look of.
Personally I think its all bollox...but if it is as you say it is....then why would the words "or more" exist in the players contract?

Beano said:Having a minimum amount which the club may choose to reject completely defeats the purpose of a buy out clause. There might as well be none.
To me, the "Or more" means the author isn't too sure what the buy out amount is. I've seen £24 Million and £26 Million mentioned.
