[Albion] Will Moises Caicedo be a Brighton player when the transfer window SLAMS shut?

[banjo]

I guess he wants European football next season.

 

[Sheebo]

I’m surprised so many saying they think he’ll still go etc. if he and his agent wanted out in the Summer they’d be mad to sign this deal.

My opinion, for what it’s worth, is that this contract until 2028 pretty much guarantees he’s here until Summer 2024 minimum.

A victory for Albion, Caicedo, fans and football.

I would guess there is a Euro qualification clause, allowing him to leave if we don't achieve European football next season.

I imagine no chance but who knows…

Unless there’s a huge pay rise now and a promise from the club that they won’t stand in his way if a buying club meet the price set.

 

[US Seagull]

Fabulous news.

 

[Hugo Rune]

That is brilliant news. Guarantees a hefty fee if he does go… & sends a f*** you to clubs thinking we could be bullied into a cheaper transfer

Yes. The typical Arsenals fan’s social media rhetoric was as follows:

1. We’d have an unhappy player in the dressing room who would not perform at his top level again for us and would disrupt the dressing room.

2. We’d be forced to sell him for around £35m in the summer.

3. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity and he’ll never get the chance to join a ‘big’ club again.

What is actually going to happen is a reasonable chance of him playing for us at Wembley and when he is sold, he’ll go for more than £70m to a club that has actually won the Champions League before!

Chelsea?

Great news…..which I didn’t see coming at all

That’s my take too.
Can’t see the logic to extend for that much time to then move 3 months later.
What happens next summer will very much depend on our on-field progress by then.
Be interesting the summer window now.If we can hold onto Mac and/or Mitoma then, with the experience being gained by the youngish squad we could have a better season next year.

Exciting times

 

[Kosh]

Well, I for one am shocked, stunned and not a little amazed.

 

[ac gull]

In next year or two with playing regularly he can develop an awful lot more and get even better, after that can name his destination and suspect it will be Real Madrid or stay with us

 

[ManOfSussex]

Lovely stuff. Don't try and f*** over Tony Bloom again, yeah?

Ben white extended his contract mid season, before joining Arsenal.

It happens all the time and makes no difference to the likelihood of Moises staying. He was on a long contract anyway.

This just rewards him for some excellent performances and keeps him focused for the rest of this season.

White didn't extend his contract 4+1 years

No, just 4 years.

White hadn’t tried to “force” a move in the winter transfer window.
By signing a new contract now, he is signalling his intent to stay for a reasonable period. Just my opinion.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

No, just 4 years.

Exactly, my point remains

 

[OzMike]

He will still go In the summer, just upping the anti for a better fee.
