Crystal Palace and West Brom are the two clubs apparently chasing the former Claret and it is expected that Rotherham will now get less than a million pounds for him. That would represent a tremendous profit though, Lee cost them around £150,000 in November 2000 when he moved from the Turf after an initial loan period.
It could bring a windfall our way to, there was a suggestion of a sell on clause at the time he signed and so we could be picking up some extra money should he move on during the summer.
Lee has recently won a place in the Republic of Ireland squad following a season when he scored a total of sixteen goals for Rotherham.
