We’ve ‘joined the race’ apparently (according to Alex Crook anyway) but seems Barcelona more likely. 17yo Swedish ’sensation’….midfielder.
Yeah, but "Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United lead chase for Swedish wonderkid" will get FAR more clicks through to their site than "Brighton steal a march on rivals to sign Swedish wonderkid".If you google his name, on the front page there are headline stories linking him with Man City, Man Utd, Arsenal, Barcelona, Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan and Roma - it is mental we even have a chance with this sort of talent these days.
Brighton’s apparent interest is very well hidden but then again, it made me laugh with Barco. Leading up to signing him, barely any online headline stories linked us, it was all about how City had already, or were about to sign him.
It does look like this might be a tough one to get over the line with that competition though!
