You can't hold on to a player against their will and expect them to perform at the same level. It's a case of letting him go now to play at a higher level and getting something for him in the process. The alternative would be to hold on to a potentially disgruntled player for a year and then watch him move for nothing at the end of the season.
He would have been 3rd choice at best in our squad this season. He might as well go and develop in an established professional setup at a higher level if he knows he's unlikely to get regular first team football here anyway.
