Brighton are after him.
Nixon, it saysHardly surprising. Given no information or source which is not ideal but I would assume on a permanent. Would be foolish for Chelsea to sell him and I very much doubt they will.
Do Chelsea have a recall option in Reece's season long loan agreement?
If not he's going nowhere until next summer.
They would. Brighton aren’t stupid, they know in the current market that a player like him fetches up to 40 million minimum in the near future and their best (only) chance to get him is now while Chelsea are unsure what to do with him. Their head scout is a Latics fan who still lives here and watches all our games. Dan Ashworth was part of the England setup overseeing James’ development. It’s no coincidence they’ve tried to sign all our best players over the past year.
Much as I don't want to disagree KDZ any player that is sent out on loan will no doubt have some sort of recall clause in the contract otherwise it would not be prudent for the home club to let him out. The home club would cover all sorts of eventualities within the contract including the unforeseen sale of the player, injury to the player or a desperate need for him to be back at the club due to an injury crisis. No doubt the club loaning him will also insert its own clauses to cover their own interests but as the player is on contract to his home club they would no doubt be dictating terms.
