He’s massively sucking up to the Saudis now and projecting himself as some kind of expert on the game/transfer market etc there……have heard a couple of soundbites on the radio from him introduced as ‘our Middle East football expert’ or similar - sort of a ‘Dinar Shop’ Tim Vickery.
To be fair to him, it looks like he spent about five years out there (or covering the MENA region) in the mid-2010s, so he's arguably more of an 'expert' than some...

Quite remarkable how The Sun have spun that interview to give this headline:

Man Utd handed huge transfer boost as Brighton CEO confirms plan to SELL £100m striker target Evan Ferguson

This bloke isn't really an important factor - he's a commentator, an influencer, a one man band. Adds no value. I wouldn't have bothered if I were PBOBE. No doubt there's some rationale but I can't see it.

As Barber says, he will go on to play at a higher level and hopefully that higher level will be with us!

Everything now turns in to click bait shit nowadays.
