Kyle Walker

[LoughboroBlade]

Some suggestions he'll be making his England debut this week in the friendly vs Holland.

As I recall, the fees we got for both Kyle's had extras attached based on appearances and possible international appearances. Anyone know if we are due anything should he appear in the game this week?

Don't know but I wish the lad well he deserves it all.

Walker typifies a lot of what's been right and wrong with the club in recent years.

That we can produce such a great player who is also a Blade and happy to play for us and then be so short sighted to make such a hash of the timing and the amount of his transfer.

If there is an add on I can't see it being too major given we only sold him for £2m I think? Maybe couple hundred thousand here and there for the financial black hole to swallow up.

At a time when we can't afford to give triallists contracts on average wages, any funding like that is extremely useful frankly. I thought McCabe in a Fans Forum had said something along the lines of add-ons, same time he said both Kyles had % sell-on clauses in the deal with Spurs.

Please. We can, or more accurately those who own basically all of the shares in the club can afford it. They just won't spend any money.

It was £3M rising to £4M, Kyle N was £5M rising to £6M and I seem to remember someone did confirm that that there is a 'playing for England' clause and also a decent sell on if they move for more money than Spurs paid us.

I think that's unlikely to happen in the case of Kyle Naughton, unless he has a blinder at Norwich this season.
