Once a Blade, always a daft ****
"Mutual Consent." That means we have come to an agreement to let him leave for free. We have managed to get Higdon and Dimaio off the books without paying them off. Thus freeing up wages for potential new signings.
Dimaio for example will probably have been one where Chesterfield and the Blades were unable to reach an agreement over the fee involved. We would also be due compensation due to his age if they signed him up for free transfer at the end of his contract. Therefore we agreed to terminate his contract without paying him of which meant Chesterfield could sign him as he was unassigned to a club. Meaning...
Basically, securing the release of these two by 'mutual consent' suggests signings are coming in.
- We didn't pay him off
- We got him off the wage bill
- Chesterfield got their man for free without having to pay compo
hope you're right but don't bank on it.
