N'golo Kante, 9M? https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ngolo-kante/profil/spieler/225083

‘A wonderful example’ – Pepe takes Euro 2024 by storm at the age of 41 https://www.theguardian.com/football/article/2024/jun/23/a-wonderful-example-pepe-takes-euros-by-storm-at-the-age-of-41?CMP=share_btn_url

Pepe, soon to be out of contract. Would strengthen our defense 100%. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/pepe/profil/spieler/14132

8M euros on Transfermarkt.

At least he's won a World Cup. https://www.thefa.com/news/2017/oct/28/u17-final---281017

Rodgers also lost 4-1 to this bloke.

Do we have to appoint a new manager before the end of the transfer window? Will we end up with nobody?

Apologies if already posted: Leicester close to appointing Graham Potter as manager to replace Enzo Maresca https://www.theguardian.com/football/article/2024/jun/18/leicester-appointing-graham-potter-manager-replace-enzo-maresca?CMP=share_btn_url

Yep, but there is NO other news.

Cooper 2/5: https://m.skybet.com/football/manager-specials/next-permanent-leicester-manager/33657537

Cooper now 2/1 on Skybet: https://m.skybet.com/football/manager-specials/next-permanent-leicester-manager/33657537

He's probably been reading FT.

Moyes is at the Euros, then. Maybe we're waiting for him to finish there?

A significant upgrade on Patson, IMO. Plus at 6'4", would be danger at corners. Might need to bring Albrighton back.

Still only came 9th, though. Behind City!

Decent squad when they came 9th, one place behind City:

Potter Brighton record: 15th, 16th, 9th. Hmm...

2/5 Potter: https://m.skybet.com/football/manager-specials/next-permanent-leicester-manager/33657537

I have a theory for what its worth. Longer it takes, the more likely it'll be Potter. Cooper would have said yes or no by now. Must be arguing about terms and money. Might be wrong , of course.

Supported City for 50+ years. Can't think of any player as likeable and genuine as this bloke.

No chance but Nuri Sahin, his assistant, is plausible.
