21-year-old RB from Sevilla. Previously linked and his style is a great match with the club.

Not seen any very recent links so this could just be a creation of my imagination, but... it smells right.

Sending Barco to them could be a sweetener rather than a context-free loan. Mayhaps.

We need a back up plan as the Ferdi deal is dragging on big time.

He was heavily linked some time ago and would be a lot cheaper.

Why would Ferdi be coming as a LB when we have, when on form AND fit, one of the best left backs in the world in Pervis?!

Errrmm.....no.

It's RB we're seeking to strengthen. It's been explained a few times!

Go on then.

£10 says he plays more games at left back than right back this season. Edited, I mistyped £100 instead of £10

My blood ain’t that rich.

I just don’t understand why the club would sign a player considered by many to be the best, most in-form left back in world football, then loan out our backup left back (while our first choice has been suffering constant injury issues and even now isn’t fit, leaving us with no fit left backs) - then play him in a position where we have three alternatives in Veltman, Lamptey and Hinshelwood.

If you are signing an in-form player for big money, generally what you don’t do is then ask him to change position from where he’s been having huge success and let other players who play in his very position go on loan.

It would be like loaning out Ferguson, then bringing in a player from Europe who played the whole season at striker and scored loads of goals, and playing him in central midfield.

It just makes zero sense.
