Because Sevilla (if it is indeed them) are no threat to Barca, he wouldn’t play against them and instead could help Sevilla take points against their rivals. And the fact that Barca are just absolutely desperate financially and trying to register players before the trsnsfer window shuts like Cancelo, means they probably don’t care where he goes and just want him off the books ASAP.
Can Sevilla afford the same wage percentage we've apparently agreed to?

If he’s in Seville, there is a plane due into Biggin Hill this afternoon.

All Albion deals get derailed at last minute ? - Baleba deal has been known about for months.
If there's other interest, they don't choose Albion ? - Ask Milner, Pedro, etc
No way Albion can compete on this deal ? - will they've already shaken off Spurs (No Europe ) , have more ££ than Sevilla (PL riches), and a verbal agreement with player and club and RDZ wooing him in last minute Zoom calls.
Everyone still says we're favourite and Romano has gone for a "Here we go" ...even getting his photoshop fella out late on a Thursday night.

Will never happen ha ha.

I've no idea, but how do Sevilla play? Is it like Barca? Otherwise it would make sense to come to Brighton who do (surreal still to type that).

How many times is he going to be in goal scoring opportunities in Sevilla vs us? For his career he needs to establish himself as a no 10 and get goals/assists.

Money is the sticking point for Seville I think. They can't cover his wages.
No they probably can’t afford that but just saying Barca would happily let him go to another La Liga side IF they can afford it. Sevilla are probably selling Lucas Ocampos to Fulham today as well as a couple of others so may have some funds to cover this. IF it is actually them.

The fact they’re desperate financially might play into our hands. We’ve definitely got the money. They won’t want any fannying about.

So more important first step than flights to Gatwick, is working out if he’s actually in Seville and potentially even better the airport at lunchtime. Then the stalking can begin fully 🤣

The difference being we usually double our money or better in that scenario. In this one Tony just ends up £6-10m down.
Think what this will do to our club profile and also our commercial arm? That’s going to be strengthened.

Hope the club shop has a lot of shirts in ready to be sold.
