If they can't sign Pettersson, Pettersson has told us why. They don't need to leak anything, the player has said his intentions.
"I want to win. I want to stay. Winning is the more important of the two to me. If I can't win, I'm sorry but I won't stay."
It's a fine argument and makes perfect sense if the team sucks again. Why would a guy with elite potential settle for less than mediocrity.
