Seen several reports saying Chelsea are in for a new CB, could it be Dunk?
Not so sure myself, but what does everyone else think?

Probably not

Football Shorts in the Sunday Times says
'Chelsea have inquired about..... Dunk.... understood to be valued at around £50 million by Brighton who would not prevent Dunk from moving to a club of Chelsea's stature should those terms be met'.
Perhaps a move could be on then.

I could be wrong, but think Dunk might be one of those rare players that spend most of their career at one club, as long as Brighton stay in the Premiership. He is a local lad and all that and probably would pay to watch games if he wasn't playing. He's had opportunities to leave before.

Never, he's not good enough for a CL team.
Chelsea already have quality CB's and have first option on the brilliant Ake.

I would hope that we never charge him for the rest of his life!

Not seen such Bravery!
Owen Says No approach.
I agree he is not good enough to be a regular starter in the strongest teams, but he is in the tier below and British, making teams that struggle with the homegrown rule interested in a way they wouldnt be with a foreigner. It leads to players like Fabian Delph ending up in big clubs and I could see Dunk move for the same reasons. Even if he wouldnt be a regular, getting that fat money, the medals and the attention... most wouldnt turn it down.
Also agree that Chelsea is not likely at the moment though. The elephant in the room is that Manchester City needs a homegrown player while also being short on central defenders. I can easily see this ugly City transfer deadline bid in front of me.

I can see Mansour signing Koulibaly for £90m this summer, as a ready made solution to the loss of Kompany and collapse in Stone’s game. I just don’t see Dunk starting every week for Chelsea or ManC, he has a lack of pace and errors in his game. If he moves to them, it will be as an early rounds LC and FAC starter. No Albion fan would begrudge him huge money (and medals riding on the back of their first 11’s).
Koulibaly would also stop Manure getting him. Both clubs play that game.

True NSC style
Football fans on a football forum talking about a football player changing football teams, only to be told not to by a superior football fan.

Dunk is a Chelsea fan though, so wouldn´t be a massive surprise.

My thoughts exactly! The amount of post police (same old ones) on here is ridiculous. Surely a forum only works when different people offer opinions.

It was also reported the other day that Chelsea were also keeping tabs on Nathan Ake and our very own Ben White. Chelsea have a number of centre backs at the moment, and due to their squad size would need to move one out before any player could be added.
I’m going for no first team players out and nobody of consequence in
Is Dunk actually good enough for a top six club
Good question, jury's out for me.
