The problem with Vente is that the worth of the player to us is a lot less than the worth to Herenveen. He is in the last year of the contract with us and he was almost completely anonymous up here, and has said himself he doesn’t get the sort of balls he needs to score in this league.

We’re not in a strong negotiating position and if we can wipe our feet with the deal it’s a decent outcome from a poor signing.

The idea we’d see some sort of bidding war was always pie in the sky because teams know the above and that we’re not going to turn down the chance to turn a small profit.
I see it totally differently

The guy has just spent a year at a smaller team than Heerenveen showcasing that he is made for their league, he is road tested in their division, and he provides what they are missing - goals.

There's a long window in front of us and not many other strikers available with that track record in Heerenveen's league.

If they want him, there's a price...
