And If Cucurella wants the move then all their proceeding to do is help Uncle Tony dig his heels in until he gets the price HE wants and not what City want to pay. Sounds to me like you will get your player but we will get top dollar. Everyone wins!

A transfer request from the player would change everything.

Honest questions- how would you feel about him if he put a transfer request in and went on strike. Would you understand the fact he wants to go to City and its such a big chance for him w/no guarantee next summer he gets the same chance plus he feels you are currently pricing him out of it (40m max more reasonable) or would you be royally pissed off at him?
 
Fab Romano is gonna tweet about this every day now.. might help City actually lol. Same stuff.

Hes got a direct line to Cucus agents.

Not when you want something that's not yours...everything has a price...you may decide to pay what the owner desires. No one knows the asking price. You will get him I'm sure but don't always underestimate little clubs like Brighton. You may have Superior players but I know who I would back when it comes to picking a business fight with Bloom.

With respect, this isn’t a bunch of kids fucking about in the playground trying to play the tough guy - it’s a complex financial negotiation, with a number of elements at play which can impact the overall price.

If a deal does end up happening, it’ll be at a price both parties can be relatively satisfied with.

I know you guys love all the Brighton PR about ‘Uncle Tony’, but back in the real world that simply isn’t how these kind of deals end up playing out.

Think you are dreaming. If we dont get him for a price we find acceptable we`ll walk away and go for another target. Shame for the player he might never get the chance to go to a team that look like winning silverware. Lets hope he doesn`t throw a strop which effects your league form. But hey ho.

I'd just be shocked if he did. Part of the reason that Pep wants him Is the kids character and professionalism, part of the reason Brighton went hard for him last year was the same. There are players who do down tools, and those who don't, and I'd be shocked if Cucu was the former. He wants the move, I'm sure, Brighton will sell at the right price, I'm sure, but these considerations aren't going to change the price.

I reckon a compromise is likely, yes.

Must be really good having someone like Bloom running your club, if only we didn't have all these amateurs running our club.

This will not drag on through August. If it's Cucurella, Pep will want him integrating into the team. The season is almost on us. If it's not Cucurella, Pep will want X integrating into the team.
It just isn't true that we've got proper cover for that position now.

Is this true though? We signed Dias on the 29th september, 6 days before the deadline. Different during covid i guess?

This is a twats game though, unsettling someone and driving down the price. I'd prefer to pay the market value.

Not always mate - it can be a tactic to help the negotiations for the selling club too, as it removes the requirement for them to pay loyalty bonuses to the player - meaning a lesser fee can end up being worth more to them if a player forgoes his contractual rights by putting in a request.
