Keane is apparently going to be low thirties, Stones was fifty. A young English CB like Gibson who is already on the England squad is going to be twenty with add-ons making it around twenty five give or take a few bob. He is definite quality, the type of player you build a team around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton are paying £31m for Keane, who is equally as proven as Gibson. Somewhere in the middle for Gibson is fair in my mind. I'm not sure that gibson is any more proven than maguire tbh. Id have thought a fee with add ons to around 20m. I guess it depends how many clubs get involved and whether you can make it an auction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer it goes on, the higher the price becomes. Once Keane signs for 30 plus next week then Gibsons value increases. We need to just get the deal done ASAP to let other players out there know that Leicester is serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keane has two seasons in this league, 35 appearances this year, 22 two years ago when Burnley were relegated for a total of 57. I'd say that's fairly comparable when you account for Keane been given opportunities that Gibson didn't simply because he was a youth prospect from Manchester United. Both have England call ups.

So absolutely not even close to being as proven as each other then using your own logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
