Jose Izquierdo - ALL CONFIRMED - NEW RECORD SIGNING

[Knotty]

I'm going with he knows very little.

Sports Journos who aren't willing to put their reputation on the line for an exclusive aren't worth much.

Nonsense.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Belgian press were reporting that personal terms had been agreed, is that not the case? I was under the impression that the only hurdles Naylor was referring to were the work permit and the medical...

Benitez must be getting more than a little twitchy up North.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Nonsense.

Very true. Comparing him to other sports reporters representing a diverse group of other sports world wide the guy is useless.

 

[Kneon Light]

He managed to get a work permit to play in Belgium - that gives me hope he will get one to play in England given that he has become a full international since the Belgian work permit was granted.

Does this guy chase pigeons in his spare time?

 

[Whoislloydy]

Nah... just a niggle I'm sure (Out til November)

(November 2018)

 

[Papa Lazarou]

I'd imagine it would be good to have this concluded before the fans forum tonight.... and the work permit before Saturday...

 

[Oscar]

Cute lIttle fella aint he?

£13m though. Crazy market.

 

[brighton_tom]

Does this mean we wont be signing a right back? As with this new signing, a striker, and a 3rd GK that will be the 3 signings Bloom/Barber mentioned... Or did they say at least 3?

He puts himself "on the line" every time he dismisses other "sports journos" stories as untrue.
So far he's done this dozens of times this summer. All true.
You've insulted him all summer. Not sure why.

At least 3.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

mainly right footed but also scores with his left

 

[Ernest]

Bet he won't get a work permit or he fails the medical

 

[Giraffe]

Izquierdo literally translates to "left" in Spanish. Which side does he prefer?

We shall see my friend, we shall see!

Belgian leagues

11 Million for Tom Ince: Experience in the Championship and 15 PL appearances.

12.5 Million for Jacob Murphy: You but only 1 seasons worth of Championship experience.

13.5 Million for Izquierdo: 2 International Caps and Europa and Champions League experience.

Think we're potentially getting a comparative bargain here...
