I expect to see Valentino dancing down the wing.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

Not much of a build up there then? The new Cafu not much to carry around with you when your 18 and just starting in the game
It’s ok. At 18 he’ll never even have heard of Cafu

'Freelance journalist' using a stock photo.
I've got more followers than him.
Perhaps I should start a rumour.
I did try it once actually. And it reached the papers, as well as other 'ITK' accounts.

Oh ye of little faith. I found him with a simple search: born in 1846.

Many years ago I did a Twitter experiment with a player that I had chosen as a plausible signing from Spain. Of course, it was rubbish.
Not before it had reached numerous heavily followed accounts, printed media, and finally got Naylored down.
The majority of this is lazy journalism or just bullshit Twitter 'look at me' accounts.

Could be as competition/cover for Lamptey allowing Veltman to focus on being the new(old) Ben White and thus not necessarily needing to buy another central defender.
Not to mention that his name is apparently Niccolo, but his Twitter handle is spelt Nicollo.
I'd assume most actual journalists know how to spell their own name.

I'm not sure why we're obsessing with one wannabe's tweet which we all know is just rehashing a tweet from a more respected source.
However, the original story from The Athletic about the three young Chelsea prospects is very interesting.
And if Chelsea's academy player of the year for last season is linked with the possibility of a move to Brighton it provides as much reason to be excited as any rumour currently being floated about in this transfer window.
If we are able to complete the signing of Tino Livramento I would suggest it would be viewed internally as probably the best bit of business we would have done this summer. I'm keeping my fingers and everything else crossed.
As usual, articles from The Athletic are behind a paywall, but here's a snippet:
The prospect of losing Livramento, who was named Chelsea’s academy player of the season in May, will be a massive blow to the club.
He has attracted interest from Southampton and is being strongly targeted by Brighton, who have watched him for some time. While a deal is not said to be imminent, it is a strong possibility because, like the others, he wants to leave this summer.
Livramento, named on the bench for the first time when Chelsea played against Manchester City in the Premier League two months ago, is known for playing right wing-back.
But head coach Thomas Tuchel already has captain Cesar Azpilicueta and James to play in that position. He has also used Callum Hudson-Odoi, another full England international, there.

Yes please
This would be a bit of a coup for us, hope there's something in it.
This will become more of a thing though I think as that Athletic article alludes to. I don't think the big clubs (especially Chelsea) are going to be able to stock pile all the best young players any more because they're seeing what happens to the likes of Sancho and Lamptey when they go and get regular first team games.

So is this just Twitter bollox or is there actually something to this?

Isn’t Karbownik the same position? What will happen to him?

Really hope this one happens
It doesn't really though, does it? It states that Chelsea are worried about losing him but not much about him coming to Brighton.

I was thinking this.
Surely he'd want to be above in the pecking order? Older than Lamptey and Livramento with more senior appearances and a full international
