Yankuba Minteh (now playing for Brighton & Hove Albion)


Recommended Posts

Could he be one of those where if he's been playing pretty regularly this season, we keep him around the club at least until January even if he's not getting much game time? Get to learn what we expect of him, get used to the area and club. Think Kuol is going to need to do the same at some point unless he's just been signed to flip on for FFP purposes.

By the time January arrives we should have Barnes back, maybe Murphy too and as others have said he'll be away to AFCON, by the time that's done the above two along with Anderson/Willock will be back

 

Him staying at Feyenoord is absolutely the right thing to do for the remainder of the season, especially as he's getting regular minutes

 

In the summer it will be interesting to see what we do, if he stays there is the luxury of him not taking a squad space and Howe can take a closer look at him

 

Though I'm sure for 2025-26 he still doesn't take a squad space so even another season long loan could be a good idea

When you cancel a loan does it have to be in the transfer window or anytime? Because if it's the latter he could be a great addition going into January to keep us up with the top seven teams. 


Depends if there’s a break clause in the loan from either side - the fact he’s getting regular games means we won’t activate the recall clause in Jan and let him develop as he has done this season

Long term it would be the best for him and the club if he stays where he is for at least this season. Also important to do all we can to have a great relationship with Feyenoord and other clubs. Massively important going forward when we will be looking to sign young players and get them good loans.

Sensible plan is let him stay and continue to develop where he is. Needs must (…when the devil pukes in your kettle) plan is it would be daft to leave a player elsewhere if he is more than holding his own in champions league games when we’re down to putting green as grass academy players and three keepers on the bench in vital games.

Could Feyenoord refuse to send Minteh back if they agreed to a season's loan, or as you say agree a further season later, though seeing as the in champs league and I believe 2nd in the Erevidisie they may have a case to refuse, he seems important to them .
