neither is Delap and we tried to buy him. Fancy we will play a different system this season. 

Delap is more allrounder than Sesko.

I imagine if we hadn't had PSR issues in the last year we'd have been all over this guy at £20m, as we seem pretty persistent with our targets once we've identified them. Bit of a shitter that he's become a £70m player in the time it took us to sort our PSR shit out

 

 

 

 

There's a reality where our front 3 is Etikite - Isak - Doue.

ASM - Wilson - Almiron

Sesko….

 

Funny you should say that.

 

Another one who we spoke to about a move previously, when he was at Leipzig, and so know his agent/reps.

 

This was from March this year.

Also saw the link below earlier, but no source has been stated, but it ties into the March story in the Chronicle.

The signs are all pointing to us having planned to get another top striker in.

 

And both Ekitike and Sesko played in two striker systems the last couple of seasons in Germany, so will be well suited to pairing with Isak.

Frankfurt really paid PSG like 20m euros for this guy last year?

 

 

 

Took up an option from the loan I assume.

So where does Oselu fit into this 

Exactly where he should - third choice striker. He’s got it all to do.

Sesko being linked with Liverpool..

They love a Leipzig signing.

I half wonder whether we are going for Ekitike this Summer (potentially at a release clause level) to try and create a situation where it forces Liverpool to move for him this Summer, and in turn makes us re-signing Isak easier. If Liverpool did feel they needed to swoop in to get him at his release clause then summer, then doing Wirtz + Ekitike this Summer and then Isak next Summer is a crazy high level of spend...potentially to the point where it makes Isak at north of £120m unviable for them. 

[Stottie]

Just sign him and sell ourselves part of the women's team next June.

I don't know what the football story of this summer will be, but the Aston Villa PSR "troubles" we were told about are the No. 1 non-story.

FWIW, Romano’s just retweeted his tweet from last week saying had interest.

 

When I say FWIW, I’m also fully aware that it’s worth absolutely nothing.

The absolute highlight there is the pronounciation of Hugo Ekitike.

Club world cup win for Chelsea so I expect he will be off there.

Thats fine well be able to sign Delap or Pedro on the cheap next summer.

Chelsea dont sell cheap. Delap will go for 60 plus and Pedro will be 80 plus.

Chelsea are literally what Brighton are, but on a higher budget. They bought delap to flip him in 2 years time for double the price.
