"It's got to be more than £25million, he shouldn't go for less than that," Pearson previously told Bristol World.

"Since he made his debut for us he's played 80 odd games, so he's been a regular.

"People talk about second season-itis where players get a drop-off, I don't think we've seen that at all, I think we've seen him push on.

"He's managed to continue his development with a pretty steady upward curve over the two years he's been here now.

"That speaks volumes not just about his ability but his temperament too… He'll go on to really big things, I'm sure about that."

Pearson added: "I believe Alex will play for England one day.

"I thought that when I first saw him in a training session and nothing since has changed my mind.

"He is a level-headed lad, who won't be affected by reports in the press. He will play for a top club one day and it's just a question of when."
