Wilson Palacios to sign for the Albion??

[Rogero]

I am a Brighton fan who has been living in Honduras for the last 12 years.

A local football newspaper has posted an article this morning claiming that Wilson Palacios will be signing for the Albion shortly. I know there was some speculation about this early last year. I obviously can't vouch for the veracity of this claim and can't see any mention of it in the UK press (even though the article claims there has been), but perhaps they have communication with the player's agent? Personally think this would be a great signing for us.

Translation:

Brighton and Hove Albion interested in signing Wilson Palacios

The English second division team have demonstrated their interest in obtaining the Honduran players services.

Stoke City is willing to let the player go after various seasons in which he hasn't had first team football.

According to the English media Brighton and Hove Albion are looking at signing the Honduran midfielder.

Brighton have already tried once (in the winter of 2014) to sign the player but negotiations with Stoke City didn't go well.

"The Wizard" has experience of two world cups, as well as playing in the Champions League with Tottenham at the highlight of his career.

Stoke City are willing to let him go to reduce their player salary budget.

Now Pulis is at WBA, I would imagine he will end up at The Hawthorns

 

[Safeway]

we dont want another Aquestian?

What difference does it make if he's into horse riding?

 

[Juan Albion]

His last name is a bit of a concern, tbh.

Would be very happy if this were true.

I believe CMS is on £22.5.

I have it on good authority that CMS is on 12K per week.

 

[Seagulls1984]

38 apps in nearly 4 seasons , prone to red cards . To much of a risky signing in my eyes!!

Your next joke? No where near that. .

That is much nearer I think.

 

[HantsSeagull]

That is much nearer I think.

hmmm....i happen to know what Spanish dave and one of our defenders were/are on. I don't know what CMS is on but unless he was very shit at negotiating, i would suggest its more than £12k based on what I know about the other two. i think we might all be surprised about how much our club is paying in wages.

My friend works in re-insurance and whilst providing quotations to the club for insurance purposes, he was privy to the player and manager's salaries.

as i said i don't know what CMS is on - if its £12k, then more fool him - although as it has turned it, we have been overpaying him by about £10k per week for the last 3 and a bit years.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I believe CMS is on £22.5.

Do you really think one player is earning £1,170,000 a year when the total wage bill was £21m at it's height? That wage bill is for every employee in the club, including £500K for Paul Barber. The office staff must be on £10 a month, if that is the case.

 

[scousefan]

If Kemy is on £30k then Burke should be in prison!

I like the idea of Palacios if only because there must be some great songs linking Palacios and Palarse!

Aon? They have the biggest football insurance line of business.

 

[maltaseagull]

Is his wife called Crystal

If it is, we don't want him

 

[Triggaaar]

If it is, we don't want him

I don't know, it would be nice if someone from Brighton could **** Crystal Palacios for a change.

 

[B.W.]

Have to say his experience is exactly what we need, but can't see us paying enough.
