It seems all the more bizarre when you consider City had paid a fee for him and the likes of Alex Revell and Eoin Doyle were playing up front for City by the time the 2014/15 season ended.
Potentially contract conditions that appearances would trigger payment clauses?

Certainly a strange one but not the first nor last of that period
