Stranded According to the Mail, Everton hope to sign Richards in January.
If we get a decent fee, happy to sell as if clubs of that level are interested he will head off in the summer for free anyway.

yeah, looking less likely he'll sign the new contract. Sadly I think its inevitable he'll leave so we may as well get a fee in

No problem with Academy players moving on to better things, is exactly what we should be doing. See players break in to the team, sell for a good fee and reinvest that in improving the first team more. Perfect model for a club at our current level.

Jagermesiter1871 For me I honestly will be more gutted to see Richards go than I will if Olise leaves. I think Richards is the real deal and genuinely could be a starter for United/City/Chelsea. We also have absolutely zero cover for him as opposed to Olise->Swift

NewCorkSeth This is a good move on paper for him. Chance to play for Ancelotti at a premier league club that is kinda always just there.
Digne is one of the best LBs in the league so can't imagine game time would be hugely available. Would be nice if they loaned him back till the end of the season.

Zip This is not good news but if he doesn’t want to sign a new contract we have to let him go to at least recoup some money. He has been outstanding this season and will be a big loss if he does go. He is so much more physically stronger than he used to be and much more streetwise defensively. He rarely gets beaten now.
He has great feet and can somehow pass the ball to a team mate under seemingly huge pressure.
If he does leave I want to see this guy fly. He has the talent to go to the top.

Notts Royal Would be a big loss. Should’ve tied him down to a bigger contract in the summer as it was clear he was progressing better than Blackett & Obita at the time. Why do we never learn?

Takes 2 to want to talk contracts and sign them. For all we know Richards may well have been very happy to delay talks knowing that he would get a run this year and if he went well could command a higher wage or be more attractive to other clubs.

Hound yep and he wasn't esp good last year tbf. Always had potential but wasn't really fulfilling it

Still not the finished article when it comes to defending and positional play but vastly improved this season.
His touch , control and passing are brilliant and of Premier League quality.
Would love him to stay but money talks and let us hope it is loads of money.

WestYorksRoyal People talking about £2m as a figure given the contract. Does that not seem low?
We're 5th and could conceivably get promoted. For £2m, I'm tempted to forget about it and risk letting him go on a free in order to maximise promotion chances. Offer £5m - £6m and I'm more tempted to bank it and move on.
