Whilst I do bore of the "Under 23 black hole" joke, which is trotted out literally every time anyone mentions our academy, there is something amusing about this.
Prime example is Ales Mateju, who was playing Europa League football with Viktoria Plzen before joining us. One year later he was starring in the Sussex Senior Cup against Haywards Heath Town.

Difficult to know what quality to expect from Mlakar, but Maribor is by far the best club in Slovenia (doesn't mean a lot perhaps), and he is their top scorer at age 20, with a scoring rate of better than 1 in 2 and one goal off top scorer in the league. Hopefully we can see him push onwards over the rest of the season and when he returns to Sussex in the summer.

We won't be.
This policy is no different from Chelsea, Man United, Man City, Liverpool. They all have 40 or 50 of young lads from around the world playing at levels 16s to 23s who will disappear without ever touching the first team. People on here just notice it more because it gets reported locally when they arrive or we go looking to find it.
The other clubs above probably have a ''merry go round'' of youngsters five times as big as what Brighton's is - This is just a fact of life that the wealth in the PL allows PL clubs to do this and when there are that many its no wonder most don't make it because they really have to be the best of their group to do so

I’m not even underwhelmed. What’s less than that? Deeply beyond Whelmed?

Not sure why you've responded this to me rather than one of the "Lancing black hole" brigade.
Yes it comes with the territory, but it's still a bit odd and occasionally amusing.
But, and I don't remember where I read this statistic so I may be wrong, we have more players out on loan at the moment than any other English club, except Chelsea.
People say "we're developing a conveyor belt of talent like Chelsea", well, we're already there, the profits just haven't arrived yet.
Just some drudge from the usual drudge sites
"Now Fiorentina News says Brighton are signing the player on a €3m deal, so €1.5m should stay with the Italian side."
Fee being reported by former club as they kepr 50% of any future transfer.

I get this sign in winter and loan back till summer strategy. Gives the lads time to “exit” and tie up lose ends etc. Nice.
We will be in the Championship !

I stand corrected. Turns out it's a season long loan with a view to a permanent move to Brescia (at a chunky profit
.) Hard to keep track of all the dicing and slicing of the younger squads!
