Perhaps one of the more overpriced position on the football pitch due to the rarity of great players in the role is at full-back.
Getting the right player there can be a game changer, which is why teams are always on the lookout for them, which leads us to both Crystal Palace and Brighton & Hove Albion.
The former’s need for a right-back is hardly a secret after selling Aaron Wan-Bissaka to Manchester United, while the Seagulls have never placed that much trust in Ezequiel Schelotto since signing him, leaving Martín Montoya as their only viable option going forward.
That’s why their pursuit of Montpellier’s Ruben Aguilar isn’t surprising, and they face competition from AS Monaco to his signature.
Don’t discount Brighton, however, who are said to be ‘insisting’ alongside Monaco, ready to pry him away from the Ligue 1 club.
The three offers are reportedly ‘relatively similar’, meaning it’s down to Aguilar himself to make up his mind, needing to make the right choice for his career.
It’s stated we should know more about it ‘in the coming hours’.
