Petrovs Six Million Pounds Transfer Clause

Last updated : 26 April 2006 By William Ryker
Almost every Celtic supporter you speak to will tell you that Gordon Strachan is keeping the transfer Value of Stan Petrov to the Maximum by constantly telling everyone that he will not allow the Bulgarian star to leave, but here is another twist to the tale. Although player contracts are said to be private it seems to be common knowledge inside Celtic park that during the last contract talks with Petrov Celtic put a clause in his contract that he could not leave Celtic for less than Six million pounds. Petrov's agents are having to stick to this clause and so far the offers from other clubs to Celtic have fallen short of this amount and thats why Petrov is still at the club.
