I also think the reason we're not getting huge offers for Douzi is that other than heart he doesn't seem to have any standout technical attributes.
He's well ahead of the curve in terms of minutes and experience for a player his age so I always respected his potential but I also couldn't see what about him would eventually make him a world beater. Maybe that's what these top clubs are thinking as well?
Watch his assist against Sp**s for Auba earlier this year, very high technical standard to get that pass right from that angle fo delivery not many players can do that.
IMO he only lacks another yard of pace & the right attitude to be world class. The club know how good he can be which is why they have not booted him out like they have with other ill discipline in the past like Jay Bothroyd or even AMN who had to apologise. Unfortunately Douzi seems to stubborn so he'll be on his way out.
£40m is the bare minimum, you put all the add ons & sell on clauses on top of that as well. Bellingham just went for £25m from the championship. I trust Raul, unlike the old regime he knows how to get fees e.g. Iwobi, Bielik etc
