We certainly would have the inside track if we were interested in signing Lozano.
Brands seemed to leave on very good terms and was allowed to do deals right up to the very end .
Brands will have an in depth knowledge of the player , seeing him in training every day, interacting with his team mates and of course playing.
The absolute silence relating to transfers in or out is unusual but possibly Brands does not leak information to the media like some others . There is no doubt that we are trying to sell players and to buy some as well. The situation relating to James Maddison where it appeared that we never had any interest in spite of being heavily linked by the media shows how little is known about what we want to do in the market.
My own opinion is that we will only try to sign players, that have reasonable experience and are ready to step straight into the first team. We have so many good young players fighting each other for first team experience that we don't need any more.
