You just need to piss him off. No player older than 30 should get a contract like the one he is asking for. I would let him go. Been burnt a few times giving my 32 year old player a 7 year contract extension only to see him crash and burn after 3 or 4 years. The longest extension I now give is 7 years with players 27 year old or younger.
