Solanke now too.

It's a slight shame more weren't given a chance during their time here. I'm sure Hall would have stayed if it weren't for our margins.

Also, maybe Livramento if James had as much injuries then as he did now.

I was going to mention him as well, but I'd imagine Gusto would have been another roadblock for him.

If you want to look at it in another way, though, Gusto probably would have been at Newcastle instead of Tino.

We also got a bonus for Tino moving to Newcastle as his original deal with Southampton had a sell on fee for us (think the reports were saying 25-30% IIRC). 

Always thought from the academy days that Solanke was going to end up the best striker of the lot, even Mourinho mentioned years ago that the kid had it all, just needed to develop consistency in his game.  Feels weird seeing him at Spurs though 😆

I'd imagine the sell-on fee was similar to the buy-back clause that was rumoured.

There was certainly a lot of hype surrounding him after he won the Golden Ball at the U-20 World Cup, which prompted Liverpool to snap him up. It was seemingly too much for him at the time, as he suffered a similar fate.
