This suggests that they are looking for a new goalkeeper in the summer to take over from Martin Dubravka as number one, with the new owners surely set to flex some financial muscle once again when the transfer window opens.

The Latest: Sanchez move

According to The Sun, the North East club are now 'set to snatch' Sanchez from the Seagulls, and are 'lining up' a £20m offer for the Spain international.

Eddie Howe's scouts have been 'tracking' him, and insiders have revealed that he is Howe's first choice.

The Verdict: Sign

With Dubravka getting on now at 33 years of age, Sanchez is an exciting shot-stopper that has a much higher ceiling at just 24.

Described as having 'amazing' ability and a player who can be 'anything he wants' by his manager Graham Potter (Sky Sports), Sanchez certainly has a lot of potential, and could be a mainstay in the Tyneside outfit's side for years to come.

Despite a dip in Brighton's form of late, he has still managed to keep five teams in the top flight have conceded fewer goals than them.

Nonetheless, at £20m, he could be a bit of a steal.
