Why would it? Considering he's on £25k a week, he needs to sort his release from Brighton. That'll take some time
Think Rosie mentioned about having robustness for his players, if this is the case the reoccurring toe injury to Connolly may be a bit off-putting despite what he offers us. Be interesting to see which direction we go given that statement, and the potential incoming and outgoing players.
Imagine Acun and Barnesie doing the rap in the chairman's suite after promotion though. That'd be worth 5k new YT followers and 100k Instagram hits surely... Haha!
I got the impression it was a salute to the fans knowing he ain't gonna play again this season. Like most things it might be black or white but there may be a bit of negotiation to be had. We have a valuation. Brighton have one also.
He's on a fortune and still got a year left on his current deal. We won't be paying that so he'll be wanting a payoff from Brighton. They can't really ask for any initial transfer fee, and they seem to want rid of him but they'll want add-ons and a decent sell-on clause. There's plenty to negotiate and that's if we want to sign him permanently
Yep, it's the same as Darlow. If everyone got their way they'd be back here tomorrow, but who knows what'll happen so of course the players will farewell the fans without knowing for sure they'll be back.
There's loads of time and I'd be really surprised if they both didn't get done. I aren't really sure where Connolly would end up if it wasn't for us too
Oh, I absolutely agree. no way he's signing for a fee and 25k. Same with Pelkas on 32.k Neither would be sustainable on their current contracts based on overall contribution.
If we can get in now, Alfredo Morelos is available on a free. He’s a proper ****house striker, he’d have to check his attitude on the pitch because he gets sent off quite a lot. Ryan Kent also available. Kent has been linked with Fenerbahce, could get him on loan maybe if Acun can work a little magic.
