Everton is an option.

Yes.

Maybe there was the unspoken agreement that he’d be back for Boro but now he’s gearing himself up for Everton - hence “early”.

He’s back tomorrow. “Might be involved” v Everton. Has come back early out of loyalty to club according to The Athletic

Yes >> u21s: Players born on or after 1 January 2001. HGP - Home Grown Player -see below. Each squad contains no more than 17 players who do not fulfil the "HGP Player" (HGP) criteria. The rest of the squad, up to a total of 25 players, must be "HGP". 1. Sanchez ( HGP ) (2025) 2. Steele ( HGP...

It almost certainly will - so absolutely agreed. I’m quite comfortable about it cos I can’t foresee , for now at least, where it’s coming from in the short/ medium term.

Well he can offer them a better one. And as far as we can tell - has TB anyone in the squad who is actually doing this ? I make it only Maupay or Mac now who have 1 year left and at risk of running down their contracts and there’s really nothing to suggest why that won’t be settled this...

I was jesting !

Of course not. But the smart money is surely on a new Mac contract. And we have reports now that a new contract for Cucurella is being discussed. Sounds like it’s all working as you’d expect

We’re talking about 2 players here .

Its hardly unusual for a player with one year to go like Mac to be in negotiations the summer before and then agree to a new contract. Not sure - unless there’s reporting otherwise - why the outcome of a new contract is not the more likely scenario.

Well we will know cos club is normally delighted to announce new contracts and there’s been plenty of them over the last 18 months. Where’s the sign that players don’t want to continue their career with Potter etc ? Sure another Bissouma hold out might happen - at some point. Agreed. - but the...

Good spot - he signed a new contract taking him to 2026 last summer. So that’s Webster, Sanchez, Lamptey, Sarmiento, Gross, Welbeck, Rushworth in last 18 months.

But they’re not are they ?

Also in last 18 months - Sanchez, Sarmiento, Lamptey, and Welbeck.

Pascal Gross about 2 weeks ago.

You sign a new contract to get a big new pay rise. So there’s that. Cheer up Icy. Brighton are actually one of the biggest clubs in Europe already …and there’s no sign at all - why would there be - that all our players ; star or otherwise ; are off.

Argus pouring cold water on reports suggesting new loan deal all done and delivered. "Meanwhile, Albion have yet to make a firm decision on where Alexis Mac Allister will spend the season on loan, in spite of reports in Argentina suggesting a deal with Boca Juniors. Boca are the biggest and...
