£75m would be fun. He's 27. f***ing delightful player but after 27, if we are a selling club, we won't be getting more. Also pointless keeping him as we don't have a striker who gets into the 6 yard box for his cut backs anyway

I hope not for him. If it was a Champions League team offering anywhere near that I would accept that Kaoru may well want to test himself at that level, and he'd go with my best wishes. But he really shouldn't be stepping away from top level football at his age, regardless of money.

It’s probably not his first choice, but if they offer to x10 his wages with little taxes that might convince him.

One of, if not the best first touches I've ever seen. Hope he stays.

We won't turn down 90 mill for Mitoma. It would allow us to buy 3 x 30 mill players...... that are always injured

Yeah imagine what kind of lead we can generate in the lost player minutes due to injury charts.

I agree BUT sadly in this modern world MONEY talks. Hopefully Mitoma won't want to go anyway.

We are not paying anyone £300k+ (what Duran is going to get as a far less renowned player). Ultimately, everyone has a price. Mitoma is already supposedly one of the top earners, if not the top earner at Brighton. He could go to Saudi for 2 years, and earn the same amount he could in 7 years at Brighton and still have enough time left in his career to make another move back to Europe or Japan.

I have no idea what Duran is like on a personal level but I imagine the decision making process of a 20-year-old Colombian from a humble background will be quite different to that of a 27-year-old Japanese university graduate.

I"m pretty sure he's not on £20k a week.

Net of tax, its probably not far off the right amount.

Will be hard to turn down £90m if he wants to go

Click to expand...

Yes, but is there a source for a £90m offer, or is that just from made up figures on this thread?

Couldn’t give a toss if Ferguson is sold or loaned but this would proper upset me!

A wonderful, unique talent - Adingra is just not in his league.

No way we’re turning down £90m though if that figure is true.
