Classic mis-direction tactics.

Whilst other clubs may think that this is our preferred target, we'll close on a totally different player next week.

Hope so.

Dembele is on Celtic’s bench tonight in a Championship game. Seems he won’t even be brought on as a sub, his head must be in the wrong place after lil’ old Brighton lifted it’s skirt and flashed it’s knickers.

I hope we are closer on this one than we are to Mitrovic.

Newcastle outcast Aleksandar Mitrovic is a January target for Brighton.

Seagulls boss Chris Hughton sent his scouts to watch Mitrovic in action during Serbia’s 3-2 loss to Austria on Friday.

Toon boss Rafael Benitez ran out of patience with hot-headed Mitrovic after he was hit with a three-match ban for elbowing West Ham midfielder Manuel Lanzini in August.

I know which one I’d prefer and it’s not Mitrovic.

As others have said, I reckon this is a smokescreen. Always good to remember the chairman is a pretty handy poker player... :lol:

Odd that the club are happy to tell Naylor that they have bid.


Either the deal is done, or there is a secret ongoing plan A.
I reckon it's a decoy like others have said. There's a player out there who's gone under the radar, other clubs around us may be concerned we'd strengthen too much and show their interest and before they know it. We've found a gem.

Lol, he’s quality. Upgrade on hemed. Fans favourite too.

Not a smoke screen when naylor confirms interest which he has been spot on since we got promoted.

I’d take Mitrovic, maybe Hemed is off and Murray isn’t get any younger

He’s still only 23 maybe just needs a change of scenery

No doubt we will be linked with quite a few yet though

Not really fussed about his record for Newcastle where I think he’s come up against a manager who has a downer on him and a system that doesn’t suit him.

For my mind his age and record at previous clubs are good enough for us to look at him.

A forward line of Mitrovic and Lacadia would be an upgrade on Hemed/Murray and Grob/ Baldock.

If we can get the deal done for c£10m then great.

He quotes his source as a ‘Northern’ one which means it’s not the club. I think Naylor’s taken a chance here with his scattergun approach and his luck might have run out.

Expect him to tow the club line and blame the source when the club deny the link (having signed their real target)!
