Clyde1998 PSG are now linked with Olise: https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2 ... ael-olise/
Under FIFA's 'Solidarity contribution' rules, we'd be entitled to 2.5% of any transfer fee (on top of any agreed sell on clauses with Crystal Palace).

Royal_jimmy I still feel so pissed off with how we lost him for so little money. I was saying back then he was worth £20-25m yet some of you idiots were happy to let him go for £2-4m I'm glad those who said that don't own us.

You're gonna have to pull up quotes because this sounds like utter bollocks that you've just made up.

It isn't, why not just search for it yourself?

(By the way I like Hendo’s suggestion, in the above, at rumoured Leicester interest, for £25m + Demari Gray + Olise back on loan)
But the fact remains he was sold at what I think was a gross undervaluation because there was a release clause put into his contract. However the reason as to why that clause was there is unknown. It might have been an agent playing “hard ball” and saying his client would only sign if such a clause for this value was in the contract or it might be someone at the Reading end putting his finger in the air and plucking a random figure as a “sweetener clause” to get Olise to sign and it’s therefore a possibility the player may have signed if the release clause was a lot more. We do not know and are unlikely to be told.
However it should be remembered that at the time the agreement was signed Michael was not a first team regular and was only on the very fringes of things though I think it should have been obvious to any experienced coach of young players how talented he was. Therefore my take on it is that, unless the clause was agent led and non negotiable from that perspective, that the club, and I know this is going to be hard to believe, might have made a right mess of the whole thing.
