"Inter agreed to send Sensi out on a free transfer on the deadline day, but the deal would come with €2.5m in add-ons, depending on Leicester City’s Premier League promotion."
If we couldn't afford £2m and his wages, we're absolutely dammed.
Article goes on to say this:
"According to the report, FFP issues and work permit contributed to Sensi’s collapsed transfer, but ultimately not everyone at Leicester City was convinced about signing Sensi, contrary to their coach Maresca, who had pushed to reunite with his compatriot."
Assume big John and his footballing expertise didn't agree with the signing.
