It’s not over until the Cucurella sings

Andy Naylor - Swansman 1-0

... maybe. This is chaos tbh.

Presumably he includes the club among the chancers spreading rumours

The medical has to be completed, and the replacement agreed before it’s all finalised.

 

[Solid at the back]

The saga continues! Club are clearly fuming with Cucu's agent and Fabrizio, gone after him BIG time here, made him look pathetic!

 

[Hugo Rune]

BBC, Talk Sport, Argus have all joined Naylor now in reporting that deal isn’t done.

Edit - And so have Brighton themselves !! Extraordinary

BBC now:

“Chelsea have agreed a deal to sign Spain international full-back Marc Cucurella from Brighton.”

This reads ‘deal done’ to me.

... and BBC. And Sky Sports.

Something quite odd about all of this. Wonder if the Cucurellian agents misunderstood something?

Hehe...BBC are backtracking a bit on the Cucu deal!!

Hehe? You think that is good? OK, whatever........................

It's all gone a bit Piastri

 

[Stat Brother]

Gotta love the club.

Says nothing as usual.
Pops out to stick 2 fingers up at trolls the world over.
Then ducks back down again.

Surely not...

 

[dazzer6666]

I think this is just the club having a very public dig at Romano because of the way he’s acted over this deal……it’ll still happen, it’s just not done yet and he’s blabbed too early for their liking because Cucu’s agent has tipped him off.

 

[um bongo molongo]

Feels like most likely Bloom is playing hardball on Colwill. Deal on Cucu agreed subject to that, agent has jumped the gun and Bloom issuing that statement to ensure he doesn’t lose negotiating leverage.

But of course I’m only guessing.

(Along with everyone else)

I just hope it,s because Tony is demanding Cucurobber pays back the 100,000.00 pounds he has been paid to sit on his arse in Spain for the last two weeks.

 

[Weststander]

This gives Citeh a window to bid £62.5m.



Stop it Tony

I reckon you’re right with this

Sky now backtracking

You’d have to assume his agents are the ones feeding all this information as it’s continued from City to Chelsea.

Whoever it is, I don’t think they’ve misunderstood anything at all. There seems to have been a clear policy to force the deal through from the start, even if it means driving a wedge between Cucurella, the club and Albion fans.
