Putting two and two together I think Carvalho was the Plan B to O'Riley. I wonder who Plan C is...

Seems they're looking to spend a large chunk of that Solanke money on Eddie Nketiah according to Mark McAdam

Brighton moving on from O'Riley?

You're completely right and we won't spend that. However, the problem with this is you just cannot complete at this level anymore without spending these sums regularly. PSR aside a £25m player today is a £15m player five years ago.

I'm pretty sure some transfer news will drop in the next hour or so, just in time for the forum.

One thing that can be said with certainty based on our fan base meltdown over signings at the moment. Tonight's fan forum is going to be an absolute shit show 🤣

£27.5m is too much, so not surprised. Clarke being touted at £20-25m would be a good alternative at the lower end of their price range. Jack scored today in Sunderland's 2-0 win at Cardiff.

IMO a GK, AM and ST are all vital to survival this season.

BREAKING: AC Milan are close to agreeing a deal with Tottenham for right-back Emerson Royal 🚨 According to Sky in Italy, the fee is expected to be £12.8m (€15m) plus bonuses on top. KWP back to Spurs?

Turkish media reporting Lis loan to Goztepe is done. New keeper incoming...

I think you'd be surprised, he has been the media mouthpiece for the club for a number of years which has benefitted his knowledge. Of course, the club could say the same thing behind closed doors. Making it happen is a completely different thing

So, Adam Blackmore suggested we should expect some movement in and out by the end of the week. You'd think for this to happen something would likely break today. It seems the cards are falling in to place for Brighton with Buonanotte loaned to Leicester, Undav returning to the Bundesliga and funding any move for O'Riley.

Frustrating that they haven't got the stupid border around Rollbit on the third kit. Why couldn't they do this with the home and away?

Feels like he is putting two and two together here. I don't believe a word Bailey says, lazy journalism imo

Excited about what Dibling can produce this season. Incidentally, he has been moved to the men's squad list from the U21's on the OS in the last couple of days.

That is my hope, but I just cannot see it happening. Arsenal will want his full wages covered, reported to be £120k p/w plus a loan fee. I cannot see Sports Republic sanctioning a circa £10m outlay for a season long loan, but in my opinion in the grand scheme of things its a small drop in the ocean if it means PL survival.

£12.5m with add-ons up to £14m according to the BBC, he is locked into a contact until 2030 with a club option of an additional year. His value is irrelevant anyway as they'd likely only sanction a loan

Over £40m is absurd for his achievements to date, but I guess relative based on academy players going for vast amounts this summer

Some quotes from Adam Blackmore regarding O'Riley, Carvalho and the GK situation: “I think Southampton would like to get him [Fabio Carvalho] AND Matt O’Riley, not one or the other.” “[Southampton’s pursuit of] Matt O’Riley has become stuck, with Celtic not exactly being quick to respond to communications.” “Maybe Brighton are interested in O’Riley. I think O’Riley’s happy to come to Southampton. I think Celtic need to get on with it.” “There’s some good experience out there. They [Southampton] want a goalkeeper, yeah.” “Southampton want to get a couple of things done - in and out - in the next week.” Listen here
