It's hot topic over the closure of the transfer window ... Leicester gave Sporting a proposal to hire him. Confirm? The value of this offer is a little above 25 million? It is a challenge that excites?Yes, I confirm this proposal. The sporty design of Leicester is very interesting and corresponds to my career goals. He says it is "interesting". Because?-After Past 15 years at Sporting, this opportunity is something exceptional for me and can allow me to express and impose another championship, and also to evolve in the Premier League, which is a stunning league. "The president assured me when, after so many years of dedication, he would not put obstacles to my professional development since received an interesting proposal for both parties" How do you think fans will react to Sporting?'I love Sporting as a family and I dedicated myself to the club since I was 12 years old. With Sporting lived many moments of happiness. I can say that I grew up with the club. At 27 years old, and after so many years of loyalty, I think that no one will criticize me for wanting to embrace this challenge. It will be difficult, after all these years, leaving Sporting?-quit Home is always difficult part of my heart will always be here.

The President assured me when, after so many years of dedication, he would not put obstacles to my professional development since received an interesting proposal for both parties. I think that is the case and we should come up with something concrete soon.

This guy really impressed me at the Euros, good player with an unbelievable work rate. Wow.

adimo1409 Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 He is very good, works hard and his technique is superior to Kante's Kante does more dirty work than Adrien but a pairing of Adrien and Drinkwater is really interesting Great addition if completed and for 25m as reported is just a steal imo
BroughtonFox Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 I was hoping for Carvalho but this guy also looks good! Had a good euros
lgfualol Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 Drinkwater/Silva/Mendy/Amartey. Solid CM first choices.
Merging Cultures Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 Wow, this would be too much. It can't be right can it? If we got this guy and Slimani, I will be amazed. I'll have to take everything back I've said about Rudkin.
Ric Flair Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 I was upset we were opting not to go for Camacho and N'Zonzi but perhaps this is why. Massive yes.
sphericalfox Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 It would be smart to have a player that could understand Slimani's movement etc. Paired with Drinky who feeds Vardy... How realistic is this? Surely this means an offload of James & Inler to accommodate.
Babylon Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 Fair to say we go straight to the top of Sportings "hate" list if we rob those two from them.
StriderHiryu Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 I must confess I don't know too much about him, but he is the captain for Sporting Lisbon. How do you add a video so it displays inline with a post? Don't know, so here is a link anyway! Looks good, although personally I would have gone for Carvalho just because I'm not 100% sure we need this type of player. More than happy to be proved wrong though! And with a more sombre note, as excited as I am about this and the Slimani deal, I feel sorry for Sporting Lisbon. This summer alone they have lost Joao Mario, Slimani and their Captain despite finishing 2nd in their league! That sort of thing almost happened to us so is many ways the amount of money we are throwing round now sometimes makes me think that it's not a good thing to go in this direction. Of course I realise that in the Premier League, you have to do this otherwise everyone else will!

I think they would be narked for stealing Slim Shady (though for a pretty penny), but robbing their Captain? They'll be spitting feathers. Don't they know we like a team captains?
Callabinho Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 He's said goodbye to Sporting apparently.....two players of this quality? Wow....
ScouseFox Posted 29 August 2016 Posted 29 August 2016 man lets just buy sporting lisbon. the players the ground the weather the beers. 25 mill for it all.
