Then if we sell him we can kiss goodbye to second place and any chance of winning the Scottish Cup. £11m to see Miller and Herrera playing again as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but say we get 6m, another 6/7m from season ticket money and whatever else from the likes of Cardoso, Herrera etc. that's massive money at this level.

Spending more could buy you a Herrera or a Pena. However keeping young talented 21 year old strikers (possibly the best potential for years) who could earn you £20m in the champions league could see you earning much more in the long run.

Another good 2 or 3 seasons and he could for 20mill. Chinese clubs have more money than sense. If they're putting in bids of £11m that's massive money to us. There's no guarantee that level of interest will continue in to the summer and beyond. Griffiths scored 40 league goals a few years back did he not? No £20m bids for him were forthcoming. In fact, I don't think celtic have ever made £20m on a player despite years of selling their best talent and Champions League exposure.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue it is, in the long run, although would be very painful. Obviously not as black and white as that, we should be securing both with or without Morelos anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
