Sold 300m (I think) this summer115m plus a sell on clause. Brighton have done very well there.
How the fuck is this prick todd getting around FFP. Surely can't be as easy as offering 8 year deals.
This seems dodgy psg are desperate to get rid of him, wages. 100m fee is not needed
Brighton must be winning the net spend league by miles. They have bought cheap and sold big very well indeed.
This will kill the PL in the next two years. Good for us
Last I heard was they were desperate to get his wages off the books, didn't have him in their plans with Enrique committed to not playing him. Just seen they wanted money from barca so that's why the move broke down.Of course it's needed, he's not a free agent, that's literally his transfer fee![]()
60m for erm... This...
I just don't see it. He had some bright moments last season but that's probably because Southampton are just so horrific.

Still seems dodgy as no one was coming in, taking his huge wages and paying anywhere near 100m.
Some excellent business by Brighton, they bought him for £4m in 2021.
He is on huge wages, either psg keep him and pay 25m a year for a bench player or let him go for a small fee... Or sell him to Saudi who offered 100m when no one else is offering 50m. There was no market for him.I don't see how it's dodgy, his contract was up in 4 years - PSG aren't going to forsake money just because he wasn't in the managers plans.
