Brooks' agent's job is easy, he just needs to put 3 scenarios to him:
1. Kyle Walker. Leave, become a millionaire overnight, and then go on to even bigger better things ie. £100k a week and a World Cup
2. Jordan Slew. Leave, become a millionaire overnight, fail to fulfil potential and drop down the leagues but you're still a millionaire.
3. Diego De Girolamo. Stay, suffer a horrific career-ruining injury, slowly disappear having never fulfilled potential or earned big bucks.
When it's set out like that it's an (unfortunately) easy decision for him.
I just hope the board disclose the figures this time in an effort to appease us fans
"Here's the 5 year contract that just needs your signature David and here are the estate agent brochures on houses in sandbanks with sea views that you asked for. Just one final thing David, Bournemouth have asked me how you want your salary paid every month; by direct debit into your new coutts bank account or do you want the club to stuff a ford transit to the brim and drive it round so you can use the low denomination notes as toilet paper? Oh, I nearly forgot, i've got you booked in on saturday at the local tattooist for your full sleeve."
