On that basis Bournemouth will offer £15m..
BTW Solanke has finally started delivering on the investment; just checked - 8 goals and 6 assists this season. He’s still young and it wouldn’t surprise me if he makes it as a Premier League striker.

The Championship seems to suit him well
The Championship is a difficult league to score goals in too - I don’t think Solanke of 2-3 years ago would be able to do what he does now.
I don't know about that. I always mention Tom Ince and his 18 goals he scored for Blackpool but a more recent example is Bowen who scored 17 in the first half of the season there. Been pretty average at West Ham.
Mitrovic scored 26 last season.
I doesn't really carry over to the premiership imo.
I don’t think Bowen is a good example - yes he hasn’t scored a lot, but he’s playing on the wing now and he’s become a key player at West Ham, earning the manager’s trust and keeping the likes of Yarmolenko out of the team. If Solanke does half as well it already should be considered a success, considering how he couldn’t hit a barn door for 2 years prior to this.
Yeah, Jarrod Bowen is a bad example. He's playing well for West Ham.
That said, Solanke is/was shite, and has found his level.

[article]AC Milan have opened talks with Liverpool for Divock Origi.
That's according to Turkish journalist Ekrem Konur, who says the Rossoneri are interested in bringing the Belgian forward to Italy for the second half of the season.
As such, they have already spoken to Anfield chiefs about a deal.
Champions League hero Origi has only managed one goal for Liverpool (against Lincoln in the Carabao Cup) so far this season in eight appearances, while AC Milan are top of the Serie A table.

[article]Roberto Martinez has warned Divock Origi will likely miss out on a place in Belgium’s European Championship squad this summer unless he secures a transfer before the window shuts.
Origi finds himself linked with a plethora of clubs as the clock counts down on the January transfer window.
The Belgium international has only made 13 appearances for Liverpool this season. Prior to a rare start against Burnley last week, his Premier League contributions had only amounted to 12 minutes.
However, when his big chance came last week against the Clarets, Origi fluffed his lines. Graeme Souness admitted he knew as much too.
The likes of Inter Milan and RB Leipzig have both been strongly linked with a move for Origi this month.
And with Diogo Jota slotted in to return from injury in February, Origi could find his first-team chances further restricted were he to stay.
All things considered, his coach for Belgium, Roberto Martinez, has suggested a move away is in Origi’s best interests.
“He is a great talent,” Martinez told FCInterNews. “From a very young age he achieved a high level of performance. In 2014 he started the World Cup in Brazil; seven years have already passed.
“He remains a young athlete, who despite having scored historic goals in the Champions League and Premier League with Liverpool in the last three seasons, did not have the time expected, at least here with Belgium.”
Asked what traits in Origi he likes and why he needs to play more, Martinez has advised the player to consider his options.
“He is an athlete who is not afraid, nothing is too big for him. That is why he has had that success I was talking about before.
“What is certain though is that he would need to play more, and have a more central role. Here [with Belgium] there are many expectations regarding his decision in this transfer window.”[/article]
