Led to believe #THFC interest in Trossard is genuine. No firm bids yet. Is under contract until 2024 after #BHAFC triggered a year’s option as revealed on @talkSPORT last week.”

While no payment has been talked about by the switch insider, the Belgian worldwide is at the moment valued at round £18m by CIES Soccer Observatory and the Seagulls are in no place to promote him on a budget after extending his £40k-per-week deal by one additional 12 months.
