Buy-Out Clause for Michael Laudrup Set at £10m to Scare Off All But Richest Suitors: The Nightly EPL

Swansea City have set the buy-out clause to break Michael Laudrup’s recently signed contract at a whopping £10 million, scaring off all but the richest suitors.

With Laudrup flying high in his first season in the Premier League, you can only imagine that a club such as Real Madrid or Chelsea would be able to afford the extravagant buy-out clause. It’s good business for Swansea either way — whether Laudrup stays or goes at the club.
