The bit that made me doubt this was the fact he is still under contract for next season, but then the following popped into my head.....
- If we buy out his contract does that also come out of the cap or not as he is coming from overseas??
- If the answer to the above is yes, if he were to join as a Marquee player, that would not matter as any payments regarding him are out of the cap (even a fee we would have to pay)??
