Reports that we are open to selling OBrien!
This makes no sense to me and the articles I read state it’s because he wants regular game time at CB
Also talks of how replacements in Munoz and Castagne have been identified which is just stupid!
Would leave us short at CB with just Keane.

Be really really bad decision to let him go. I get it from his point of view, he wants to play, and at CB.
Or do we need cash to balance the books for further purchases?
Or is it just nonsense?
Also, if we are after this Bard chap, does that mean Myko becomes backup LB and CB?

I'm hoping this is just clickbait. Would be a really bad move if we sell him. Then again, nothing surprises me with this club at the moment!

Unless the lad has asked to go, he's dropped down the pecking order at right back, barring an injury he's on the bench, which might suit Keane but the lad wants to play centre defence. Is it an opportunity to cash in. We know he's not adverse to going abroad as we got him from a French club.
I'd be sorry to see him go as I believe him and JB are the future.
Maybe a loan abroad might suit us better while Tarks effectively plays out his last guaranteed starting role season, and, akin to Seamus, takes a backseat role 27/28. At least that way we can recall him in a long term injury situation.
Either way, hope it works out well for us and him.

Only reason I think a loan won't work, Big C, is because we will need the money to replace him.
