[Albion] Fikayo Tomori

[BrightonLoyal]

We should be pushing this one and trying everything to get it done. Great player who could immediately make us better

 

[Zeberdi]

I suspect Newcastle will be first in line for this window - like him a lot but may be a bit of an ambitious target for us anyway.


Edit - been lots of recycling in the sports rags that the Toons are very interested

He's quick, but not convinced he's good enough technically.

 

[Superphil]

Would be fantastic. But out of league on PL pay?

Allegedly on £75K a week, so wouldn’t be out of our realm would it?

 

[Weststander]

Allegedly on £75K a week, so wouldn’t be out of our realm would it?

I was thinking that the usual PL suspects on wages would outbid us on personal terms eg. Villa, West Ham.

 

[brighton_tom]

Would love Tomori, but if he was available and wanted to come back to the Prem there'd be 5+ other teams interested with bigger budgets for a fee & wages.

 

[Marshy]

I would love this one, but would think we would be out bid by others on wages

 

[Silverhatch]

Would be fantastic. But out of league on PL pay?

No he isn’t.

 

[Alex BH]

I mean why would he want to join a mid table Prem club over a European giant that’s won the Italian league recently and virtually a shoe in for Europe every season?

 

[Mancgull]

If Newcastle want him then I expect he’ll go there although will put paid to Guehi joining them I expect. ( cheaper option for Newcastle)
Jerry St Juste appears to be on our radar and this seems to make sense in that he’d be affordable, he’s quick, and is Dutch. He’s also played in the Bundesliga for Mainz 05 and so I expect Fab is aware of him.

Because he’s not getting minutes with them?

 

[jackanada]

I remember that own goal at Lincoln.

I'm OUT.

Me too. Though I managed to stay out drinking in Lincoln until 2am to dull the pain.
As I remarked at the time the poor lamb hadn't really got any game time until then and his first experience outside of the cosseted world of academy football was facing a malevolent wardrobe.

 

[pigmanovich]

Really hope we can get him in in January. Why sign Fikayo Tomori when you can sign him today?

 

[Alex BH]

Because he’s not getting minutes with them?

You think players care more about that than getting a big payday?

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

What ''THE'' deal? I'm wondering if you have a link?

Apparently the deal has already STALLED.

My mate heard that Tomori has already had a bust up with Fab. Apparently he didn’t like the way Fab spoke to his parents at Christmas lunch and stepped in to say something.

Not sure what to make of it if I’m honest

 

[pigmanovich]

You think players care more about that than getting a big payday?

Apparently he’s keen to break into the England team so yes Tomori might.

 

[pigmanovich]

TS reporting Tottenham, Newcastle, West Ham, and Brentford all looking at Tomori - our interest not mentioned.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I was thinking that the usual PL suspects on wages would outbid us on personal terms eg. Villa, West Ham.

And Everton. Don't forget Everton.

 

[Han Solo]

Great player but at present I don't see us spending a lot of money on another right-footed CB. In the summer maybe but if he wants a move now I don't think it'll be to Brighton.

I hope your right regarding JSJ, he is rapid.
