Fabrizio Romano here with the same news but a more positive slant

Is it actually Romano though or just some bedroom wonder tweeting bullshit and tagging FR just to make it see authentic?

These aren't the players you're looking for.

This stuff about "he doesn't want to sign": clubs may not be permitted to talk to players without their parent club's permission, but they sure as hell know whether a player is interested in a move or not. Man City went after Grealish for the same reason: they'd been told by sources close to the player that he was keen to join. Nuñez probably chose Benfica last time around as they're a huge club with a proud footballing history and with Champions League football to boot. More than little old Brighton & Hove Albion. A lot of players would make the same choice in that situation, particularly Spanish-speaking ones for whom picking up Portuguese is going to be easier than learning English.

Nuñez's situation now may be completely different, if Benfica have hinted to him that he's down the pecking order and they need to raise funds. I honestly can't believe we'd have gone after him twice and made all this effort if we were getting signals from his representatives that he didn't fancy it whatsoever.

We can now also point to Ben White as an example of what benefits a year with us might offer.

We are now a good career option for ambitious youngsters.

Naylor says :shrug:

Classic Naylor tweet. Basically saying maybe/ maybe not. That deals are both complicated etc. Well all deals can be complicated and usually as window progresses this gets smoothed along by increased cash. Naylor told us to trust the recruitment dept( Ashworth etc) he also reminded us that there were three weeks to go ( now 11days)
Realistically it will as always come down to how much will we spend on wages etc. However with this one and Cucurella there are many mixed messages coming out continuously so things seem to change by the hour..

Well they weren't there to watch a player who is currently injured, so what were they up to?

I hope it was for Noni Madueke, the ex spurs 19 yr old English fella at PSV, he was brilliant.

Reports though of a lot of clubs interested in him.
