Curve ball.

Say a team throws a stupid mega godfather offer at Bonts. 10 million, over 8 years...
He's weighing up an offer like that, it's hard to dismiss immediately...
We believe that our offer is competitive but not enough for an immediate decision...
We believe that offering the captaincy will result in a swift long term contract extension. Locking him in, and setting us up to go about signing a lot of other guns coming out of contract. Great for him, great for other players, great for list manager, great for club, great for members, great for hope heading into 2019...

Do we automatically offer/give him the captaincy irregardless?

(I'm already in the give it to him, so my answer is there already)
