Players to watch out for on the BBC Club: Unattached Age: 34 Position: Forward/Attacking midfielder Caps: 121 Goals: 34 Ayew became Ghana's record cap holder in their opening match against Panama, overtaking the previous mark of 120 set by his brother Andre. When Jordan was made captain in 2025 he said it was "written in the stars," as he joined both his legendary father Abedi Pele and his brother in having led the Black Stars. Chasing his first World Cup goal at his third tournament, Ayew, 34, has scored 14 times in his past 22 caps - including a hat-trick in qualifying against Central African Republic. He actually scored more goals in qualifying for this World Cup (seven in 10) than he did for Leicester City in 2025-26 (six in 45). The Foxes released him after being relegated for the second successive season.

If it didn’t cover the outgoing salary what would be the point? With a new manager that likes knocking one out over passing stats, he could easily replicate what he did under Enzo. I guess it all depends on if we have money to spend and how much decent strikers cost or how well we utilise the loan market.

What would you have liked him to do? Score hatricks every week? He started 12 they won 7 (including 7 consecutive wins) lost 3 drew 2

Arsenal are set to submit a new bid for Jeremy Monga after Leicester Cityrebuffed their initial proposal for the 16-year-old gem. The Gunners are willing to push hard to sign the talented wide prospect, who featured 27 times in the Championship for the Foxes last season as they were relegated to League One in gut-wrenching fashion. Sources remain tight-lipped on the numbers behind Arsenal's opening offer but the direction of travel is that they will try again and that there's confidence the player wants to move to the Emirates Stadium - despite the efforts of other Premier League clubs including Newcastle and Brentford. While negotiations can take place now, any deal is likely to be shelved until after July 10, when Monga will turn 17 and his first professional contract at the King Power Stadium will become active. Leicester are in no hurry to sell given the raft of interest and will only do a deal once their financial valuation has been satisfied.

Harry’s brother linked from Rangers

They had no shots at half time the difference the Coventry bloke made in comparison he was rapid. Fatawu was also pony

Pretty irrelevant, given that when we signed him we had just been a prem team for over 10 years. With players on ridiculous salaries. Good luck signing anyone with any decent experience on 10k at that stage

This was debunked in the athletic “less than 45k in the championship”

I think he has alluded to being a little bit dynamic depending on the squad strengths earlier in his career At MK Dons we had two strong, powerful centre-forwards so played two strikers and found a way to score goals. At Swansea we didn't have any wingers so we had to play defenders or midfielders. "Last season we had so much attacking power for the Championship we scored a lot of goals. "Now the guys are doing what we were told we couldn't in terms of having so much of the ball in the Premier League, but there has to be the same mentality there was last year. "Whichever style of play you have, the game is about beating your opponent and dominating your opponent, and we don't do that quite enough yet."

De Marco needs his own office

Contract triggered a one year extension when we were promoted He should be exempt from SCMP (3 years deal before 2025) and was on 40k to 45k and it will be cut even further

Daka hoping that he might get re-signed

Last 5 managers less than one season. Brainwave Let’s offer a 3 year deal

Let’s hope he doesn’t blame new arrivals and cohesion if he gets off to a shit start like at Rangers

Nothing like a bit of due diligence. Martin suggested "less change so quickly" may have been a better approach and alluded to a lack of "cohesion" during his early period in charge. "There was so much change," said the former MK Dons, Swansea City and Southampton boss. "I walked in to the club at a time of new owners that had literally been in there two weeks when I came in. New director of football, chief exec, head of performance, new head coach, 14 new players. "I tried to stress a lot that it probably would take some time so that's my fault because I was in a place where historically and traditionally you don't really have time.

If you exclude the wins in November, December, and one in January. So that doesn’t apply to Martis time where he was banging in goals every week.

If you’re a shit manager it is. The difference with Marti is he occasionally won games.

Don’t know what you’re talking about at the start, 3 in 3? Martin took 8 points from the first 7 league games. ”but Rangers should be beating everyone” How many defeats did Rohl finish with in his last 7 games? 4 with a total of 9 points

It was reported that the second year, parachute payments had not been utilised at the time of writing the other month

Fixed

Based on what, clearly not the results you have seen Remit, to keep us up. when it mattered 10 points from 36

Yeah makes perfect sense, a bloke that recently had 2 relegations in one season and win percentage under 1.0

Cooper has a promotion from the champ, bring sloth home

And all the overheads just disappear like magic

He can’t get us relegated from the championship
