Full-back Brown came through Derby County ‚Äôs academy before leaving in 2021 and has been making a name for himself abroad firstly in Switzerland with Lausanne and then Gent in Belgium. His progress has caught the attention of the FA and he was rewarded last week with a first ever international call up when he was selected for England‚Äôs Elite League Squad, formerly the Under-20s.

Vamos Sevilla tries to close the sale of En-Nesyri The financial emergencies of Sevilla FC mean that we are going to see lightning negotiations at the beginning of the transfer market. Just as happened a few years ago with the transfer of Diego Carlos to Aston Villa right after the end of the 2021/22 season, the club is already preparing its first major sale. It will be that of En-Nesyri, who yesterday we saw how he left the Ram??n S?°nchez-Pizju?°n in tears, in what will be his last game with the Sevilla shirt. Balancing the accounts before June 30 will speed up this transfer in the coming days, with a team and an almost defined amount. It will be Julen Lopetegui's West Ham who will bet heavily on the Moroccan striker, with Sevilla wanting to get a return between 20 and 25 million euros from him, since the striker has not lost his scoring instinct, as demonstrated by his 20 goals this campaign, despite despite playing in the African Cup."
