Gerard Posted 14 April 2016 Share Posted 14 April 2016 I expect a £20,000,001 bid from Arsenal in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Finsbury Posted 14 April 2016 Share Posted 14 April 2016 Stop panicking everyone. Those saying he's irreplaceable need to remember one thing... Even Kante wasn't Kante this time last year. If there really is a release clause, and the player won't sign a new contract, then I'm sure we have someone else lined up. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we don't have a replacement target for every player we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weller54 Posted 14 April 2016 Share Posted 14 April 2016 He'll go to PSG in the summer! We had cambiasso for one season now it's going to be Kante. And Kante will leave a much bigger hole! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filbertstreet Posted 14 April 2016 Share Posted 14 April 2016 Kante going for £20 million would be worse than our relegation to League 1. It would be worse than administration. It would be worse than Junior Lewis being resigned for our CL campaign. It'd be so bad. have you ever seen junior lewis and kante in the same room though, how do you know they're not the same person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was already number 1 in europe for tackling and intercepting the ball. He just didn't have drink water, Mahrez, Vardy...in his team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doujio Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 If we do lose kante in the summer. Lets hope not but if we do should we go back in for this guy?https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nampalys_Mendy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes161 Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 would rather we extend kante first before Mahrez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haydos Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 I think the £20 million release clause may give other clubs the right to talk to the player and bid at or above that figure. Not sure it would invalidate Kante's 3 year contract, so the club probably have the final say on the matter. Bit like Suarez when Arsenal thought they'd got their man by triggering the "release clause" by offering a quid over the £40 million release clause figure. Let's hope such a clause doesn't exist as there isn't another player like him available in the world right now. The club doesn't have a final say, that's the point of the clause. If it's met and the player agrees terms there's nothing that can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripeyfox Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 There seems to be a lot of people who cannot grasp the concept of a "release clause". FFS it's not that hard to understand! IF Kante has a £20M release then if a club meets the valuation, the selling club HAVE to accept it. It is then down to the buying club and the player to agree terms. If they do, he leaves. If not, he stays. Of course, we don't know IF he does have a release clause. Are we sure its not £200M? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxymcoxy Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 Have any of our other players ever had release clauses? I'm struggling to think of any, it definitely doesn't seem like something we generally do. Probably bollocks, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 I'd be gutted if he's got that as a release clause. He's worth at least double that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babylon Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 This kind of stuff was constantly said about Stokes players when they were all the rage, Stoke denied the clauses existed in the end after it kept getting repeated in the press. This could quite easily be utter nonsense click bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WardyisPukka Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 Can see him going to PSG personally! why because now he is part of the french national set up he'll want to be a regular and playing for the biggest French team will no doubt help that especially with deschamps in charge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lcfcwigstonblue Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 Release clauses are standard in most players contracts these day's especially foreign players. Although that doesn't mean I believe there's one in his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notnow john Posted 15 April 2016 Share Posted 15 April 2016 I disagree. Kante was already Kante last year. He was already number 1 in europe for tackling and intercepting the ball. He just didn't have drink water, Mahrez, Vardy...in his team. He was playing in a poor league (PSG apart) and had been nowhere near the international side. The only other club that wanted him were O.M. And they valued him at 3 million. No, we made what he is and I'm sure he's very grateful,and he will stay as long as we want him!
