Pretty sure Wolves were interested last summer but didn't have the finances to offer the deal.

One we need to keep and make him captain he was outstanding all season.

Guaranteed leaver. History tells you this

Minimum of £20 million basic with add ons. Baring in mind what we were charged for some players.

Anything less, I think questions should be asked.

£30m. He's one of our best players. When you pay £15m for a player you're taking a risk. So we'd need to recover the money lost from players who now currently aren't worth the money we paid for them. In any case there's no point in him joining Burnley or Leeds as they'll be back in the Championship at the end of next season.

I'll raise you £40m

He didn't want to come to us initially, as he (justifiably) saw us as likely relegation contenders, having just come up, especially given his previous spells with WBA & Burnley. For that reason, I don't think he'll be rushing to Leeds or Burnley, as he's likely to be back next season with us, as captain.
Wolves would be a different mattdr, although they made good defensive acquisitions in the January window, so wouldn't really be looking for a first choice centre half, I would have thought ?

It will be interesting to see if Burnley want Muric back as well? I honestly don't think he has any future at Ipswich with the way that KMcK insists on playing out from the back, so I'm expecting him to move on, though I suspect he might go elsewhere in Europe?

Wolves are going to be in trouble without Cunha and Ait Nori (not sure how you spell)

If we do sell we need to make sure we get decent money for him, he’s been outstanding this season.

Having said that do we know if the dreaded release clause is in his contract and what it might be? I’ve not seen anything mentioned with regards to O’Shea but it has to be a possibility!

It's no good if the hierarchy at ITFC keep saying we are in a good place to bounce straight back and then they start selling everyone who is any good!!!!

Another name thrown into the linked ,rumoured mill,gonna be a long summer

Would have thought he would like to play a part in a promotion campaign rather than another relegation one.

One I wouldn't want to go but goes with the territory of failure to stay up,

If this is true, and he does leave i think he'll want to go to a club with a chance of staying in Prem. He won't want another relegation on his CV.

We can't afford to be selling any of our best players if we have ambitions for the top 2.You don't win promotion by selling off your best players.

I don't think he would want to go to any of the promoted clubs and have yet another relegation on his CV but Wolves, or any of the other "established 17" would probably interest him. Obviously we don't want O'Shea to leave, as he was one of our best players last season but if there is a release clause and he does, Wolfenden looked excellent at championship level and we would sign another good RCB for 4-5 million to replace O'Shea, so it might not be the end of the world. That being said, I really do hope O'Shea stays !

No need to sell, no wish to sell. If he has a relegation clause it will be £25m plus. This guy will be captain next season I have no doubt this is just is just the usual summer bullsh*t bouncing around. The Irish Sun isnt usually a "Fabrizio" of likelihood is it!
Im far more inclined to believe stories where there is a logical reason for sale. Broadhead has been rumoured for some while to be off and Davis might be worth moving on if we can get £20m. Walton has a year left and Al Hamadi who won't be up to our squad level next year. Those are the ones who might go. Barring a mega offer, no chance
Other than that, and Omari (who frankly at £35m isnt gonna get his clause triggered) it's all just paper talk, which is the rather typical cycle when theres nothing real to report.
I suppose it's better than reading the daily drivel coming out of Trump's mouth.....just

If we get 20mill for him happy days,looks like Trafford is going to newcastle so get muric back to burnley if they are silly enough to take him,10mill will be great but not holding my breath.

Surely nobody in the Prem will take Muric after what happened here. They do read the papers, you know.

Doesn't make any sense selling the player who was our best defender in the Premier League last season. We were not exactly the most secure at the back and whilst some of this could be to do with the goalkeeping situation even when that was sort of sorted we were still pretty vulnerable.
Unless we have someone who we see as ready made to step into O'Shea's place and we get silly money I wouldn't sell as if the bookies are correct we will be back in the Prem in two seasons time.

What do we do now -try and strengthen the team with "championship" players or try and find players of the stature who will be able to do well in the Premier. Personally I would weed out half a dozen or so of our lightweight easily injured chaps who would blow over in a puff of wind and replace with others more substantial. Why we spent so much money on them I do not know - presumably the best option. We were certainly taught a lesson last season.We must give the manager the best chance but he has to redeem himself regarding the expensive fees paid - also if we are to be successful will he do any better next time around.

I see it as it’s not a case of whether any of those clubs can afford to buy him…. It’s a case of we can not afford to sell him!

Obviously some Premier league clubs rate him, we obviously did otherwise we wouldn't have bought him from Burnley now their interested in getting him back with their defence...overall last season it took sometime to find his feet but as the season progressed did get better.

I'd rather we kept him but with Tuanzebe, Woolfie, Hargreaves, Burgess and Townsend should have enough to cope, it's central midfield that worries me.

What worries me the most is if McKenna goes to Brentford if frank goes to spurs . If it was to happen who do you think we should get as new manager???
