A few people are arguing this is a perfectly reasonable fee and that at 23, White has lots of potential to become one of England’s best centre backs, but a lot of it seems to be based on the fact he is good on the ball and not that much on his ability to defend.
I’m happy enough as it pushes another English defender towards a top side and in contention for England, but Brighton must be laughing to get £50m, while still having Dunk, Webster and Veltman in their ranks.
