That homegrown-young-talented-english tax is increasing. God damn Brexit.

That's just mad. Imagine what other players we could get for that money and have change.

Fulham are hoping for a City v United bidding war, unfortunately I think they are both stupid enough to pay such a fee.

Both of them pay top money for ready made players. They don't develop potential because they can afford whatever they want. Sessegnon has said he wants to stay in London (allegedly) and Fulham won't get that much for him here. If he's at all tempted he should be well aware of what the mega clubs do with their 'potential stars'. They end up loaned out all over the place and often disappear without trace.

It does make it seem that Sessegnon was a bit naive to sign his new deal. It was said that he wanted to make sure that Fulham would be able to get a good price for him but it seems that they will chase a huge fee for him and ignore the fact that he said he wanted to stay in London (if there's any truth in this story).

Thy will get probably 40m plus shit loads of add ons if he hits targets. 100m is ridiculous.

It'll be interesting to see what happens, he did right by them so it'll be interesting to see if they do right by him, if not that's a lesson to all youngsters and their family.

Fulham will still get good money for him, just not £100m lol

He could also look at what Pep has done for Stirling's career this season...
I don't see any young player looking at United and wanting to go there, other than for cold hard cash.
They don't play attacking football, which is what Sessegnon flourishes in.

If he stays in London then we must be the most attractive proposition right now.
Chelsea enter another year of instability, and Arsenal will go through a massive upheaval. Of course, you could argue that a move to the Gooners right now would be the right time, as he could be part of a new beginning.

I think we missed the boat on this one when we could have had him last season for about 30 mil and loaned him back to Fulham for the season. The same thing with Dembele who ended up at Celtic. If we think they are good enough we should take them then and not wait. If we do that this coming season with the window finishing early we will miss out again.

The teenage sessation.

Having watched the two legs v derby I would give a hearty pfffffffffffttttttt.

He’s a truly Athletic kid though, bombs on and has some composure one on one. Hard to see where the untapped potential lies with him.
