You may be correct, but let's not forget that Antony looked world-class the season before last in the Eredivisie. The Premier League has chewed up and spat out much better players than Mohammed Kudus.

No deal between the clubs, so this is being leaked by his agent. Why? Is he trying to get us to raise our contract offer?

It's all part of the game. No doesn't always mean no in football transfers. Pervis and Enciso both rejected us at first.

I'm not sure it works like that. Top teams might be aware of him, but not need to fill that position in their squad. You could say the same of Moussa Diaby, Pau Torres, Alex Scott, Harvey Barnes, Edson Alvarez. All great players who could easily play for better teams than the ones they have...

Net transfer losses or training ground improvements?

I like the last 3 seasons, we're £73m in the black plus whatever prize money we were awarded.

Over what period?

Our net spend this summer stands at about £0. According to transfermarkt.com our net spend in 2022/23 was +€82m, and in 2021/22 it was +€3m. We are currently cash rich, so it looks like any deal for Kudus is financially independent of a potential Caicedo sale. The fact that we've made a firm...

Probably nonsense, but I've read somewhere this morning, can't remember where, that Chelsea want either Kudus or Caicedo but can't afford both. So they have Kudus on standby should their play for Moises fall through. Hence his reluctance to accept our offer.

Why is there no byline? Why wouldn't the journalist want his/her name credited to an exclusive? Because it's made up.

This video shows he can tackle, but I feel De Zerbi would rather use him as a box to box type midfielder, rather than an out and out defensive midfielder. Or hopefully we can sign him and Koopmeiners for some serious strength in depth?

It's not about quantity it's his quality we want.

In De Zerbi's post match press conference today, when asked about Kudus he seemed pretty cold on the prospect, and when answering the next question, about Brightons pulling power, he did say he only wants players who are proud to want to play for Brighton. Possibly a reference to Kudus...

I fear we're jumping the gun on this one. He hasn't signed yet. And who is briefing the press? It's not in our interest to do so and Ajax have agreed a fee with us, so there is no chance of them putting it out there in the hope of creating a bidding war. So that just leaves Kudus's agent. By...

This is where he played last season for Ajax. Looks like he is best on the right.

I actually think the Mac Allisters were really honourable and genuinely appreciate what Brighton did for Alexis. Many others would have left on a free.

Mac Allister's contract was running out and we risked losing him for nothing. When we offered him a new contract to prevent this, his agent/dad insisted on a release fee that ensured he could leave for that resonable amount whilst still doing right by the club. (by not leaving on a free...

We're about £70m up on transfers over the past 2 seasons, So unlikely to be a cash issue. More likely a size of squad thing, allowing De Zerbi to have a good look at all the loans players who have returned, before deciding what we really need.
