Crystal Palace manager i.e. Alan Parses claims about £40 million to get convinced for selling of Yannick Bolasie this summer.
The winger has been associated with a close-season switch to Liverpool after some good form for the Eagles this term, meanwhile his boss accepts that " everyone has a price", he claims to charge a huge amount.
"If someone wants to give me £40m-£60m [for Bolasie], somewhere in there, that would be good. I'd take it and we'd build the team around that money. Everyone has a price, of course. I can think of a situation I had at Newcastle in the last hour of the transfer window - a team that wasn't great and not far away from the relegation zone and we accepted £30m for Andy Carroll. Now, at that time, I said to the chairman it was a gamble because we were by no means secure but we did it and we spent the money wisely and ended up with a very, very good team. It is about the right price for the right player and then you have to build on that. If a manager wants to ring me up, I'll talk to them and give them a proper price."Pardew told reporters.
Pardew was suprised to have been linked with a slide for Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul.
"I'm surprised at that because there's been no contact between me and Newcastle and certainly not with me and the player or the agents that represent him. I don't know where it's come from and, quite frankly, it's unwelcome. I have a great situation with the goalkeepers here. Tim's a great goalkeeper but he's a Newcastle goalie and I'm pretty confident that's where he'll stay. I don't understand that one. As far as we're concerned we're looking at a number of players for next season but a goalie isn't one of them."the ex-Toon manager said.
