A lot things can happen in 2 years time. He might get injury which is no surprise for full backs. Some new stars may appear. Some established full backs may want to change the scene. Cucurella is not a home grown player, little hope to play in this coming world cup if he stays, age nearly 25. And full backs is a position where UK usually produces good players but it just happens that all good ones are already grabbed by other big 6 clubs(because we wasted time in Mendy) and the next generation like Thomas and Mitchell are just a bit too young for a CL level team. But in 2 years time they may be better options for us.


So here we are. Brighton should sell this summer and grab this opportunity. I will say a price around 40M is reasonable to both sides.
They won’t budge on £50m and bloom isn’t cornered to do so, it will get made at that imo and it’s a fair price considering the market!
 
Getting rid of zinchenko with out signing a left back would be a major fuck up and somthing we seem to do every summer . Yes we won the title again last season but it could so easily have been different on that final day so to go into a season again without a proper left back is once again asking for trouble . I think £40-43 mill gets the lad from Brighton and when comparing it to £50 mill fir mendy is it really that pricey . Just pay the money and get it done
 
I imagine that if we sell Oleks, then we’ll get a new LB, if it’s Cucurella then great, but if it isn’t, it’ll be someone else. Why flap? Our club is the best run club, so no idea why fans constantly flap. We’ll be ok!
 
Did I dream. But I thought I saw somewhere the Brighton guy bragging about getting more for Bissouma? than he imagined.
Might have been someone else. But might be influencing our tactics
 
£20m difference in valuations doesn't sound great. I get the feeling we will walk away from this, it has got Harry Kane vibes of last summer written all over it when we were miles apart and both sides refused to budge.

Hopefully we have a plan B or we meet in the middle somewhere but it doesn't sound great so far.

He is 24 on Friday. Mitchell is 23 in 6 weeks
