Hopefully he can get a decent loan move in January and get some playing time.

If his recent interview is anything to go by he likely won’t be returning. Very happy at Basel and wants a permanent move.
Believe there’s a clause in the loan agreement also where they have a buy option.
Think it’ll be the best thing for him. Can’t see him working his way into our team.

Agree... 100% he'll leave in the summer. Basel or elsewhere remains to be seen.
A clause was mentioned when he moved there. Not heard any fee but around £2m is probably a good guesss.

Or a back up wingback?! Can't believe that Glow Up Idiot played him at wingback in one game....think it was Sheff United when he came on as substitute.

Actually away to Southampton when we won 2.1 in one of the lockdown games he came on at wing back and played really well. He got a lot of praise on here for that game and was a crucial part of that win which was massive at the time.

Ferguson has put paid to any lingering chances he'd have had at BHA. He already looks 3x the player.
Dunno about that. He had some qualities and more importantly worked hard but he's first touch was really far from PL level.
Undav is no world beater but a level above, imo.

I suspect Undav is the new Ashley Barnes.

Think the fact we agreed to a loan with option to buy move last summer means his career at Brighton was probably over long before this seasons emergence of Evan.
Good luck to him though, he always gave his all when he came on, even when playing out of position. He's now getting to play for one of the biggest clubs in his home country, hes probably pretty happy with that.

Probably yes - but have Basel (or anybody else in one of Europe's lesser leagues) got £2M quid to spare? - and is he really worth two of Viktor Gyokeres anyway?

They spent about €18m on 4 players in the 20/21 season and turned a decent profit on two of them. They sold Zhegrova to Lille for €7m and Cabral to Fiorentina for €15.5m.
So there could be some money there, but they've not qualified for the Champions League for a number of seasons now (not helped by Switzerland losing one of their places from the 20-21 season). This season they are in danger of missing out on European qualification altogether, which could harm their finances further. Hopefully the option is for a decent fee but as it's an option and not an obligation they could still say no.
The reason Gyokeres was sold for just £1 million up front was the "substantial" sell on clause - so we don't actually know how much the total fee was yet.
£2m wouldn’t buy you the best striker in league two so surely it would be a bargain for zeqiri . Basel have bought low sold high a few times so they must have a few euros

No, but that was possiby partly due to the sale not happening if we'd demanded any more from Blackburn upfront, maybe? There's not much money floating around in the Championship either.
League 2 strikers go for more than £2M? - when one of the best strikers in the Championship went for just £1M (OK, with add-ons, but still).

Yep, no questions about his attitude. Seems like a god lad, good luck to him.
