Expect them to pay between 6m and 8m, with wages around 60k pw.

Well, I was wrong. The price was £3m transfer, with £60pw wages. So I was right about the wages. That'll equate to approx. another £3m pa for the duration of the contract.
Meh. Not a disaster. If he can stay clear of injuries, and get anywhere close to his form of 2-3 years ago, then that's a fine player they'll have. If they've given him any more than 2 years, though, that may be a mistake.
