  9. Is £20m is a fair price for Brighton's Rushworth?

    It's been widely reported that this [club record £20m] bid has come in for Carl Rushworth. Brighton & Hove Albion, as well as being renowned tough negotiators, certainly don't ever comment on anybody going in or out of the club. They are very, very tight-lipped.

    We can probably assume that this has happened. One thing that they do do is make sure that the price is right and they never, ever stand in the way of a player who wants to leave.

    We have seen this with high-profile players like Moises Caicedo, Joao Pedro and Alexis Mac Allister. So if there was a player who wants to go, the key phrase is if the price is right, then they don't stand in their way. So I think that would be a cause for some sort of optimism for Coventry City fans going forward.

    It's important to remember that he has never actually played for Brighton & Hove Albion, they have sent him out on various different loans which is quite common for Brighton.

    He's been very, very good on all of them - and of course City fans will know all about that as well. But he has probably never played under [Brighton boss] Fabian Hurzeler so whether he stands in his ideas as a goalkeeper going forward - because they are quite well stacked at the moment - I'd say that probably isn't the case.

    I think £20m is a fair price, he's obviously young [24], he's got international experience with the England Under 21s. He is known as a very good all-rounder. When I speak to the squad members and the coaching staff, they feel that he has got all the assets. He's not exceptional at anything but he is very, very good at everything.

    He's highly prized. My gut feeling is that he doesn't necessarily feature in Brighton's long-term plans. That £20m figure, they will probably try and eek out a little bit more but if Coventry feel that he is essential for their Premier League season then I think it probably would happen. Brighton won't stand in his way and I think they would want him to progress as well.

    Brighton's first signing of the summer Zadok Yohanna says he will "give everything" for the team and wants to win trophies with the club.

    The Seagulls have agreed a £21.5m deal with AIK Stockholm to bring the 18-year-old winger to the Amex when the transfer window opens on 15 June.

    The Nigerian forward said he is "really happy because I know where I came from and I want to make my family proud".

    Yohanna told Brighton's official website: "I will give everything I have for the team and I really want to win trophies.

    "I watch the Premier League a lot and I know the teams use young players and Brighton is one of them. They are very good at developing young players."
