hope edwards include some sell on clause for him. Think he could go for some decent amount when he decides to step up to a bigger club.

Only 10%.

It’s hard to play your way into form with the odd cup game and 10-15 minutes or less here and there, especially as a striker

Could have gone back on loan with a recall option for Jan/AFCON if we weren't going to sign anyone.
The sale made sense if we were getting someone in.

We could but as he made clear himself, he wanted a permanent move. Cant really blame him either as loans are good for development but there comes a point any player wants a permanent home

I mean the way he’s playing you’d think he’d be a shoe-in for the Nigerian National Team so the AFCON angle is non-existent.
I find the revisionism around his sale a bit odd, he barely got a look-in for us (even when he got a work permit) and it’s not like he was pulling up trees on loan. He wanted a permanent home, we negotiated a club-record (for Union Berlin) deal with a sell-on and he’s played really well this season and I’m really happy for him. Sure we may have been able to squeeze an extra euro or two but you can’t ‘win’ every deal and the fact someone who was far down our depth chart is proving he’s a good player means clubs will keep coming to us to buy those players which helps fund our bigger purchases.
