Imagine he does go back and we Play Brighton with him as Keeper in the first game ? I would hope he would get a massive reception from the CBS - it’s not like Hamer or Ohare who left chasing money he would have had no choice - it’s a very possible scenario if we don’t get him
Club Legend. Undoubtedly.

I've lost track of how loans between Prem clubs work? Is that not an option. Would give Brighton chance to see if he could cut the mustard, I mean if he can hack it at a newly promoted team who'll probably be under the cosh most games he can make it anywhere.

I guess or other hope is we can convince them to sell him to us with a favourable buyback/massive sell-on. Does seem a bit far fetched.

Nothing in it for Brighton.

If they sell their keeper, they need a replacement, which is what they'll see Rushworth as. I'd imagine if they want to keep him, and keep him happy, they need some guarantees of first team football for him next year.

Also, I wouldn't want a player on a buy-back. Sell-on fees, yes, but a buy-back is not much more than a glorified loan.

He’s Brightons asset
We’d need to want him I’m sure we do
We’d need to make a bid I’m sure we will
If acceptable we talk to player and agent
If not we move on

Snap their hands off at £20m

When? He never made an England squad. Played 45 mins at Wembley for the Football League XI vs the Rest of The World in 1987-88 but that was it.
Shilton, Woods, Bailey, Seaman, Beasant were always ahead in that era.

Even a league winning GK in Lukic never got a look in.

Different times!

It'll be all about the wages, and unfortunately there's prem teams that will be able to offer a lot more than us.

If he's available for £20m then there will be plenty of suitors and he'll get a move to an established PL club I'd imagine.

Depends doesn’t it? A season with us where he’s comfortable and guaranteed football could double his value and get him a move to a big club.
