I would understand if he was from Chile or Japan and was homesick. But he's a Brummie!

 

A quick search online shows return flights from Aberdeen to Birmingham next week start at £115 all up.

 

If you are a bit homesick, you might wanna reconsider your choice of career as a pro footballer. Cos unless you're super-consistent and your home club simply never want to let you go, chances are you're gonna be moving around the world to different clubs at different stages in your career.

I think he's technically still contracted to the club, but it appears no-one has been in for him. It's a shame he didn't want to stay because I think the upcoming season may have seen the best of him return.

Theres no such thing as technically still contracted to anyone

 

He either is or he isnt and given hes on the official sites squad list at Number 11 id say that means he is.

 

So if no one comes in for him and he isnt prepared to buy himself out of his contract then hes there to be utilised.

I know that, but it was from reading elsewhere that some people seemed to think they would be shorter. Which didn't make sense. I think he is contracted with us till the end of August? So in that case, he should be in pre season training with the rest of the team and preparing for the duration of the season he would participate in. I certainly think we need someone of his calibre and creativity, whether he wants to do that or not is another matter.

His contract expired at the end of June. He is under contract to no club, however any club wishing to sign him still has to pay us 200k compensation.

 

He won't be back, as I'd imagine the wages offered to him have been used elsewhere now.

He's contracted til September.

All mentions from Brown, Fraser and Miller have been that his contract ended at the end of June. Where did the Aug/Sept thing come from anyway?

 

Not a chance in hell we're paying a player till September but allowing him not to turn up for training or matches.

Think it's because he signed on the 31st of August.

Surely he'd at the very least be training with us and almost certainly taking some part in pre-season friendlies if he was still under contract with us?

 

Is Aluko not away with Nigerian Olympic squad?
