At West Brom I would imagine he was on 10x what we could offer him now, and other teams were willing to take that on only 6 months ago.

Twice actually. God knows what that has to do with anything... If I recall, he moved to West Brom for around 4 million in a summer where the baggies were spending big, and then were promoted, having joined Premier League Hull for around 6 million a couple of years previous. 4.5k/week is a low wage for a high end championship/low end premier league player, that is a fact, so he'd be taking a cut from his last contract to join. He's older than he was so would be taking a cut anywhere in England, the difference is just how big a cut he would take and whether he'd have better offers elsewhere. We are not an exciting prospect right now, and I doubt he gives a toss about the "size" of the football club he joins. If someone offers over what we are allowed to offer, he won't be coming here. Hence why I said it was unlikely (not impossible). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are an exciting proposition right now because we have something to play for and zero income is zero wages and currently he hasn’t got a job Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I would point out that Grosicki couldn't get into the Polish team that sees the underwhelming Jozwiak as a star. He's on the wane, Wayne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This lad was there at roughly the same time and was a key man for them. Not saying he was on the same, could’ve been more or less. He is currently out of contract but he isn’t just going to take the first thing offered to him. If he and his agent think he can get 7k+ a week (for example), he isn’t going to take 4.5k this early. He can obviously sign at any point as a free agent. It really isn’t as simple as he’s unemployed now so he’ll take anything.
