From the Seagulls‘ standpoint, the club must now negotiate with Chelsea to secure the best possible terms for the transfer. They will also be aware of the player’s desire to explore other opportunities. The negotiations will likely involve discussions around the transfer fee, potential add-ons, and any other terms crucial to the deal.
Chelsea fans will be hoping that their club gets the deal over the line in the upcoming week.
