Both winners Mount deal not confirmed yet, personal terms agreed but Man U and Chelsea seemingly miles apart on a fee. Doubt McTominay will end up at St James park now Newcastle have (ahead of schedule) made the Champions League, always thought he'd be brought in as a player to get newcastle to the top 4, not a player for when they are in the top 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saudi Arabia spending crazy money to get big players who are at the twilight of their career so they can use them as part of their campaign to get the 2030 World Cup so the country can sportswash its image. Its sad, and players will accept it because its large money (just like the golfers did with LIV,) and I know its easy for me to say as I am not getting crazy money chucked at me, but wish at least one who should some principle and say I am already rich enough, I dont need blood money.

Seems a bargain, especially because Brighton are tough negotiators. IIRC it was fabrizio romano who reported that it was due to his buy out clause reducing and that is why he can go for 35M which looks like it will be the bargain of the transfer window (or at least one of them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
