GreaterTorontoRoyalSarah StarGreaterTorontoRoyal I am 90% certain that the OS stated Kitson was £5.5m when he went to Stoke.
Would that include add-ons?
More than likely. Transfers are usually paid in installments and add-ons nowadays.
If I recall correctly, when Kitson came back on loan Hammond said that it was one of the hardest deals he ever worked out because of all the bonuses and installments and we took a few off his price to get him back.
Oh and if you want the original article
Reading Football Club have completed the transfer of striker Dave Kitson to Stoke City for £5.5million.
