I just see them buying players - that fit the model - where there are gaps like they always have. The money has edged up a bit given the inflationary market - but what we're spending on for example Minteh or reported on Kadioglu is similar to the fees we've spent in the past on Baleba, Pedro...

Agreed,. difficult to read negotiations especially when reporting is so fragmented or in certain cases just guesswork or wrong. But this is a good source, and if player wants the move then that sounds key here - as does Bloom/Weir backing the coach with ££.

Player "wants the move" according to Sky.

Looks likely. ha ha .

Reports from Turkey that he's been offered a new 5 year contract.

Not even sure thats true about Undav. He was pretty measured about even in that interview he did recently. "Worse things (in this world) to have to play in the PL" - he said.

And their coach.

ofc. There are a few on here that don't rate him though i think.

He's still only 19. So this is a great chance to see how he progresses. He wouldn't have done that on the bench with us. And There's a lot of factors with Undav and whats happened there that aren't typical or similar to this particular loan.. (Age, Country, RDZ for example)

Not sure its changed at all recently. Most players that go out on loan don't , in the end "make it" (if you mean - come back to Brighton / become PL starters) . Thats just the way it is. . We do loan 15+ players a year however and it only takes several a season to be a "success" for this model...

Not at all. We're looking after his development and protecting our investment. He needs to play regular football at a high level and we can't offer him that this year - given that we have an abundance of wingers and strong options in that no.10 slot. its a remarkable sign of how we've...

thats one take ! the other one is that its come to something where we're loaning our young players to Leicester in the PL for game time. Blimey.

Window opens : Friday June 14th Closes : Friday August 30th Updated to include the BBBBBBBBB loans. Baker Boitey, Buonanotte, and Barrington all loaned. But still lots of trimming to do and incomings ? Goalkeepers 1.Steele ( HGP ) (2026) - 33 2.Verbruggen (2028) - 21 3. Rushworth - (2027 + 1...

Buonanotte loan to Leicester - no buy clause.

Baker Boitey off on a season long loan to L2 Port Vale

Sounds like its getting a lot of attention... (Wieffer already and Gomez / O Riley (hopefully) and others ? incoming) and plenty of loans/outgoing. )

very much on topic for this thread ! And agree with the thrust of your post that we should expect perhaps more overhaul of the squad than expected to make it manageable for Hurzeler, stronger (especially in midfield) , and hence incomings/outgoings and probably many more loans should be...

Sky Germany now reporting that Undav to Stuttgart deal is DONE - 30m Euros + add ons.

Terrific summary. Thanks @Dagan

Some news as the squad keeps taking shape. - Season long loan to L2 Grimsby Town for Luca Barrington - Reporting that Carl Rushworth is headed for a Championship season long loan this season . (presumably meaning that Verbruggen + Steele + Cahill ? - are our three keepers for 24/25 - More...
