[Albion] Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall **Singed for Chelsea 02/07/2024**

Yes, a decade ago Leicester came and took Ulloa away, before winning the Premier League two years later.

How times change.

And for just 8M.

How much would that be today? 25+?

 

[Motogull]

Yep. Good player but needs to learn how to score (for us). Perhaps some time at a free-scoring championship club may give him the little boost he needs.

I'd rather he went to a club below Palace to boost their chances of overhauling them. Which one would be the best fit for him?

 

[Stat Brother]

I take it we're across this somewhere on this Fred

I think someone else mentioned it, but it looks promising doesn't it?

 

[brighton_dave]

I hope we get him. He has impressed me for a long time.

I'd not be keen to see Hinsch go out on loan. He looks like he has all the raw material to improve as a good EPL player by regularly starting for us. No point having him swanking around the championship.

He has proved he can play at the level needed. I'd go as far as saying he is the best all rounder I've seen for us at RFB. He has the legs to continuously provide an overlap and to get back. There is also no need for Pascal to be pulled into a position where he is wasted.

Athletic sticking by their story. Insist that his future is “uncertain”, Brighton “circling” .

I love that Brighton is now a big enough club to circle players at a club that won the Premier League and FA Cup in the last decade.

Ive not got Athetic sub, but Leicester forum have posted this, from their Athletic reporter Rob.

Lets see what happens but I'm getting Darwin Nunez vibes, with such a lowball offer. for a 25 year old with good performances in the PL.

KDH is worth more than 20m imho and whist it may be a negotiating tactic?, It may also be just a bit of naked opportunism of their perceived FFP status.

Oh how we laughed when Chelsea offered 70m for Moises or when Leeds offered 30m for white.

Offering 20m for KDH tops them both.

Not really. At least with Caicedo we knew we had one of the best midfielders in the PL. Leicester have one of the best midfielders in the Championship. He was very much a work in progress in my opinion in the PL. And we were in the driving seat with both those transfers with no necessity to sell which it appears is not the case for Leicester.

 

[The Pilsbury Echo]

Leicester apparently finalising a loan deal for Stefano Sensi from Inter. Story could have legs yet!

 

[Originunknown]

Leicester will want significantly more than the 20m suggested we've offered. His wages will also be fairly high already, which is also part of their bind but the deal won't be cheap for us that's for sure.
Is he worth it?

Caicedo went for a record £115m. White went for £50 mil. We've offered 10 mil under what Leicester are reported to want. I know you have a bee in your bonnet about our transfers but your point doesn't make any sense in this case.

If he represents the first crack in our recruitment policy - and more importantly in our wages structure (it's been suggested he is on £5M a year (£100K a week) and would presumably expect at least that, if not a substantial pay rise) - then probably no.

Sensi is pretty versatile. Has played in a range of midfield roles over the years.

It does not

 

[beardy gull]

Different type of player

I think the point is he’s going to be on about £60k a week. Increases the likelihood KDH will be sold IMO.

 

[ac gull]

Pretty pointless Leicester getting promoted if they know they will have FPP issues and risk a points deduction

Makes far more sense to sell, if indeed they need to for FPP purposes

Just needs a competent finance person to have a good educated guess at their finances

Their problem is they finished fifth twice with Champions League level of wage bill

Everton were selling Richarlison for not a penny less than £80m - right up until when they sold him for £60m ( all driven by FPP )

He’s a championship player £30m max I would think.
