He'll just sulk until he gets a transfer like that pussy Robinho.

Gyan simply left for Qatar without warning.
What contracts do they sign where they can just walk away? The clubs should be able to prosecute players for breach of contract.

I came across this from 2009

// Tevez’s future will ultimately bow to Alex Ferguson’s wishes on players’ matters. Ferguson may not be convinced that the exorbitant fee, increase in wages and possible conflict over money within the squad, represent a worthwhile investment.

The fans are shouting “sign him up, sign him up,” in every match to pressure Manchester United to reach a quick resolution but Alex Ferguson’s non-committal response was, “The fans love a trier. That’s the great thing about football. A lad who tries a lot can be forgiven for a lot of things.”

The “things which have been forgiven” are not elaborated but Carlos Tevez must have grown weary of Ferguson’s indifferent attitude. He confided in Argentina head coach Diego Maradona, “That old man doesn’t like me. He’s not playing me and he’s lowering my value.” //

excuse my ignorance on footie matters, but couldn't they sell him for £1 and see how he and his agent like their cut of that amount?

Man City can take the loss.
