Ongoing Transfer Talk

[cityfanlee23]

If Hulks on 180k+ .. What is Musa on?

Don't forget Russia were like China today a few years back, giving out ridiculous overpriced contracts to top players.

Wouldn't be surprised if Musa is on 100k+..

Done a little Google search so not sure on accuracy, but it says 5m Euros a year, so about 80k per week sterling.

Ranieri said he wants players who work hard... Don't think balotelli fits in that category. Greizmann does though

[simon789us]

When does the transfer window open

[AKCJ]

What about Schurrle?

Would be a superb signing.

[ARTY_FOX]

What about Schurrle?

Now that would be a fantastic signing. Would he come here though?

Not sure on his wages but wolfsburg are 10th, who knows!

Edit - again just a Google search, 85k per week.

I thought he was the best player on the pitch away at Chelsea last season, I think he'd fit in aswell, seems a decent fella

[elvisfmcfly]

So what you are asking is if he would leave a mid table german team to come here? Let me think,yes,yes he would.

[foxes21]

Schurrle is a great player, but Wolfsburg signed him 24mill not long ago. He'll probably cost 30million + so its a no from me.

[cityfanlee23]

Is it crazy that we are seriously looking at some of the calibre of players we are discussing as potentially realistic?

 

Few players I'm looking at just as a bit of interest really,

 

Mikel San Jose

Carlos Vela

Marc Bartra

iker muniain (not sure on his wages)

Jonathon dos santos

Keisuke Honda - Is a Milan regular though....

Domenico berrardi

Jakub Błaszczykowski

Montolivo (under 60k per week according to some sources)

Andrea Ranocchia

 

Some less realistic than others but that's just skimming through the seria a and bbva
                                                   

[cityfanlee23]

Again, just messing about here.

 

Christian Zapata (only 29 thought he was 59)

Alessio Cerci

Thiago Motta

N'koulou

Samuel Umtiti (Likely to cost a fortune so more than likely not - Scored a worldy against spurs a few years ago so I love him)

[filbertstreet]

fuchs inler kante umtiti, got to be one of the best name squad

[Guest Col city fan]

Are people still REALLY suggesting Balotelli?

He's the antithesis of all things LCFC.

Sometimes I despair.

Nail, Head.

 

If his only problem was that he was a bit wild then fine, unfortunately it's more than that, and he's not worth the risk.

[richardsfoxes]

This summer is certainly going to be new territory that's for sure. 

[Langston]

Linked with Simone Zaza from Juventus, looks like a tidy player that scores goals although not really given a chance for them. (Cost 18M EUROS recently but hasn't been given a chance)

 

Zaza is one that would genuinely get me very excited. Quick, powerful, huge workrate. Would take a massive strain off Vardy in a season we'll have plenty more games.

Question is does it spell the end for Kramaric, Okazaki or Ulloa?

 

Kramaric is finished I fear which is a shame because I like him and think he could be okay for us, plays the link role rather well, maybe I am still hanging onto that arsenal game though.

[Langston]

I don't think Kramaric will play for us again - no doubt he'll do very well somewhere else and he appears to have a cracking attitude but I just don't think it's going to work for him here.

[ST20]

It honestly hurts to talk about selling people like Okazaki and Ulloa.

[artursteppe]

So when Sir Claudio says he does not want to sell ( at least in his main first team squad ) any players, fans on this thread are implying he is a liar by believing we will sell some of our players through Claudio's choice. Hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

.................... Not wanting to sell someone and selling them does not make you a liar.

 

Saying you categorically WILL NOT sell then selling makes you a liar.

We need more fire power, Meaning ulloa or okazaki will be benched pretty much all next season if we strengthen, their game time will reduce dramatically.

[LegendOfJoe]

Andriy Yarmolenko is also someone that has popped up recently, although he was a target for Liverpool we might be able to persuade him for Champions League. Would cost around £20m but would offer a real threat on the other wing to Mahrez. 

 

​If we where to sign Zaza (fingers crossed) then we would have a very very solid attacking force upfront and on the wings

Good post.

I'd go and get both.

We have 0 chance of signing Griezmann
