Joao Pedro’s Wild Transfer Carousel…
In the wild and whirling world of football’s dramatic soap opera, Brighton’s very own Brazilian defender, Igor Julio, is playing the Fortune Teller of Transfers! Our mighty ball-kicker predicts his compadre Joao Pedro, who cost a pocket change of $41 million when he arrived from Watford, is gearing up to pack his bags faster than a seagull at a fish festival, with Liverpool as the alleged destination!
Since dazzling the turf 70 times for the Seagulls, scoring 30 glorious goals and sprinkling assists like football confetti, Pedro has got some of the Big Dog Clubs salivating—Arsenal and Newcastle among them. However, destiny threw a few banana skins his way last season. From a dramatic on-pitch exit (red card style) to some serious footy fisticuffs with Jan Paul van Hecke, Pedro had more drama than a soap opera and maybe faced more suspense than a goalkeeper at a penalty shootout.
According to Fortune Teller Igor, Liverpool is where the football gods will find Pedro most ‘perfect’. Away from the chilly south, his footy feet might just fit snugly into Liverpool’s gleaming boots. Whether he chooses the buzzing metropolis of London or the melodious potential of the Marrowgrave’s Army (read: Liverpool), it’s a tête-à-tête in transfer tales that could see him make his big splash in football’s vast ocean of fame!
