a 30 year old striker in 2007 when the market hadn't yet been injected with oil money from the middle east and other big spenders such as the red sox owners and madrid's new crazy spending spree isn't going to be going for 30 million euros.
If Henry had been 2 years younger when you sold him, he might have gone for 30 million, in today's market he would have gone for over 40.
The massive inflation in the value of players happened very siddenly when the stakes were raised. So yeah Henry for 24 million euros wasn't too far out there. RVN when he moved from utd to madrid didn't go for an 40 million fee either.
