Maybe. Maybe the info is wrong. Maybe in the time since the article was sourced/written the medical has been sanctioned.

He put in a transfer request. No one, least of all Marc Cucurella, have said what his motivation was for putting it in. Could have been to let the club know he was willing to go, that he quite liked the idea of going, that he was desperate to go, that he thought a deal was being done and as a...

As the person who said something like that (I said "may" not "will") I will defend that bit - we won't know if it has or hasn't. Obviously everything is in chaos now, so just going with what was "known" when you posted this we accepted 52.5m. Maybe we wanted 55, but the bonus of 2.5m (may be a...

But that isn't him speaking out. As others have highlighted, Dunk, Stephens and others have put in transfer requests and continued playing for us at a high (or relatively high) standard. There are any number of reasons for handing in a transfer, and he didn't tell us he did that. We know about...

What has Marc Cucurella said about any of this?

Thought that was referring to cucurella for moment, seemed odd, since he'd only scored one goal for us and it was far from a tap in. :dunce:

I don't know much about Chelsea's youngsters, so my concern is not to do with his quality, more a concern with the deal. If he has promise, aren't Chlesea likely to want a buyback clause? Would we want to take someone on, coach them through their first year or two in the premier league show they...

Which goes back to my earlier post - by putting in the request and forfeiting that payment, it might allow the selling club to accept a lower bid because they're saving on that payout (depending on what I due and how far apart the teams are, of course). Which is why I'm taking it as a 'if it...

I think it's been mentoned on this thread before, but worth repeating - Cucerella is on the brink of a place in the Spanish national team, there is a world cup coming up. It wouldn't be in his interests to sulk and underperform. At least for the first half of the season.

I choose to believe that any transfer request that has gone in is more of a 'if it helps, I'm happy to forego any loyalty payments, y'know, if it lets Brighton lower their asking price a little bit. If not, I'm happy to stay and will still give my all' rather than a 'god, I hate it here make the...

The handle doesn't match twitter (ending ap instead of o). Might be another social media account, I supose.

Oh no! What happened that made it go from the done deal it's been repeatedly reported as for the past month to 'virtually done'?

If he goes, it will be for an undisclosed fee, and all the Man City friendly national sports journalists will quote the figure City leak to them, which will be a bare minimum paid. Cue outrage on here. Followed by Andy Naylor and Brian Owen reporting what their Brighton sauces have told them...

Sky sports tweeted that last night. Some of the responses are quite amusing, most of them dismiss it. https://twitter.com/SkySportsPL/status/1541184397621317632

Not publicly, of course. But is Bloom that hands on with deals? He has hired people to run the club, so surely internally there's a figure, and there's always potential that that gets out, at the very least if there are conversations between the club and the player regarding what each side...

Seems a lot to pay for just one Cornet. Oh.

Are we getting a little carried away? We got 50m for Ben White in part based on our investment in him, picking him up as a 16 year old, and investing in him bringing him up to prem standard (care of several lower league loans), and on his potential. While there is room for improvement in...
