1 million offered and could be completed in the next few days according to Jonathan Buchan (BBC radio Sheffield).

Seems a bit on the low side for a player of his talent.

Yeah seems low even though he only has 6 months left on his contract.

He clearly has a good agent. He lets the contract run down and then the part of the fee that Barnsley would have got if he had a longer contract goes to the player in a signing on fee. I am surprised a lower end PL club has not taken a punt on him if that is the price . Even £4M or £5M is like small change to them.

£1m for 6 months of a player's contract is a lot of money.

They could sign him for nothing in the summer.

Spread the cost of that £1,000,000 over the 6 months contract they are buying, and Wednesday are effectively spending £40,000+ week to get Hourihane.

Great news for us - we get our sell on fee now. We stood to gain nothing if he ran his contract out.

We sold Norris for 1.5m I'm a similar situation didn't we? Don't get me wrong, won't be disappointed.

Fair play to him, he really turned into the real deal.
Championship stats, assists 1st, chances created 7th, tackles 4th, interceptions 7th.
Must have been all that "helpful coaching" from the Lyndhurst. Forwards!! Ha
Payback time please Conor.
