One point I think is worth highlighting is - as November 30th approaches each year, there is always a lot of media activity over any high profile players coming off contract the following November 30th, as clubs are allowed to approach any such players with offers.
In these times of a dearth of good, experienced halves, does anyone truly believe NOT A SINGLE CLUB approached DCE as of 1st December 2024?
I find that hard to believe, so is DCE’s claim of “no formal offers” 100% true, or is he relying on pure semantics by deliberately saying “formal”, as that would entail a written contract, as opposed to verbal discussions?
Either way, it’s pretty sneaky.
