"The best thing for the club is to get the value for the players and reinvest the money - this is a business as well."It does not mean we are happy about it - we have to think about the next step and what is best for us depending on the offer and what the player wants."Rovers host Bradford City in the first round of the EFL Cup on Tuesday (19:45 BST) with midfielder Todd Cantwell set to feature for the first time this season after recovering from a thigh strain.
