list players who almost left

then established themselves in the team.

admins multi-board please

it would be interesting to compile a list of players who managed to establish themselves in the first team squad after (almost) being considered surplus requirement.
Coq, Bale.. you get the idea...

I suppose we could also add players who were sold then bought back by the same club
Carvajal, Alba, Matic..

John Terry under Benitez, Wouldn't say he nearly left but he certainly looked like he was finishing as a pro at the top level, He's now one of our most important players

Bale is a good shout , as for a manager it has to be Ferguson.

Henderson was almost loaned to Fulham I think, now a good player and (deservedly imo) the next LFC captain.

Ray Houghton , realeased by West Ham . Given a trial by Fulham , the rest is history.

Ramsey to Fulham, although Wenger claims he always wanted him to stay through the dire times

Are the rumours of Kane almost being sold last summer true?
