True, if say a big team loses a player unexpectedly and believes Zaha can do the job, they'll sign him. Wilf is obviously waiting to see but it hasn't happened - unless he's negotiating. Nothing is signed yet: here or elsewhere.
I find the agent story intriguing - muddies the water for us, yet can't be true as they would have a strong legal case for compensation. He may be wanting to change agents or represent himself - there could be truth in that.
Wilf is playing the game. What bothers me is the club. If we can get someone in his position, particularly a young player, we have to act - not wait just in case.

Red and Blue Army!

This is the area that concerns, yet might suggest the party’s have some sort of verbal going on. Wilfs got us all guessing ,let’s hope that doesn’t apply to the club.

It is certainly strange and since we don't know the details of Wilfs old contract either was he an employee or was it a contract for services. A lot of people in his sort of position form a limited company which then sells a service to another company ie the club. I seem to remember Murray worked that way at Brighton.
If you get injured at work your employer would normally provide support/pay for treatment should footballer be different. He was playing for us when injured so insurers may insist we provide treatment in case it's career ending. Wilf seems to have a close relationship with SP and in the past a lot seems to have started as personal verbal agreement so its very possible that it is all sorted with fans in the dark. Don't rule out Wilf signing new contract and then being sold as Manchester United percentage is probably now history

Same for Olise so could’ve happened to Wilf even if he was under contract.
