I suspect
whoever it was is just taking advantage of Real’s precarious financial
position. But that does not mean we should just let our best asset go for a
pittance. The facts are that Kike is now fulfilling his potential, a potential
that had been limited in the past through some nasty injuries. A run without
injury and in a workmanlike team, he looks very impressive, and with 12 goals so far this season, and
being the striker with the highest number of shots in the division, seems to
now have added composure in front of goal to his list of skills.
Interested
parties should know that he is probably the best player in Spain with his back
to goal (and I include “primera” in that), able to bring down even the most
difficult balls. Has the skill to get round his man. Is a team player but knows
when it is time to go it alone. He'll get you an penalty, and score it too. Good with his head. Gives 100% in every game.
But most of all he is a Real Murcia player, and loves the club.
I can only
image how well Kike would do for a team in the Premier league, where he would have
the backing of the crowd to bolster his confidence, instead of some seed
munching know-it-alls.
If Real are
below where Kike needs to be, and if the club need to sell in the summer to
balance the books, then so be it. I just hope we have the minerals to hold out
for the right price. Looking at recent deals for strikers (yes, those that
demand the highest fees), my calculation of worth is :

below say €6 million should be laughed off. He’s worth every penny.
I love the way you calculate the amount of Money. Grande.
