davieG Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 Leicester City and West Ham Set to Hold Talks With Ludogorets Winger Jonathan Cafu 4 k Dharma Bhagalia26 APR 2017 This week both Leicester City and West Ham are set to hold private meetings in regards to Ludogorets star Jonathan Cafu, where they will be briefed on the various conditions that they must meet in order to sign him in the upcoming summer transfer window. There is also believed to be interest from recently promoted Championship side Brighton and Hove Albion as well as interest from abroad from unspecified Italian and Portuguese sides. Cafu has impressed both domestically and in Europe with his most memorable European performance coming against Arsenal in the Champions League followed by and equally if not better performance against French giants, PSG. Sport Witness believe that the Brazilian has a €12m release clause with Ludogorets most likely to push towards this figure if not more. For Leicester City and West Ham, this figure is not a questionable one and there shouldn't be any financial problems posed. Similarly for Brighton, with their recent promotion comes a large sum of money which could help fund this transfer. The only potential problem for the Seagulls remains as to whether or not Cafu wishes to gamble with a newly promoted club or prefers an established Premier League side in West Ham or current Premier League champions, Leicester City.
lgfualol Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 West Ham will hopefully be under transfer embargo so this guy will finally be our's. God how depressing is it that we'll be scraping with Brighton for players.
Ric Flair Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 I like the look of this lad and we're desperate for our first Brazilian.
AKCJ Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 Didn't he tear Arsenal apart in the Champions League? (Who didn't, am I right?)
MPH Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 Who wants to go to a club under investigation for tax fraud? He'll come to us! ( hopefully!).

StanSP Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 didn't know he was still playing!! Can't really turn your nose up at a player who has played for and lead Brazil to World Cup glory.

bovril Posted 26 April 2017 Posted 26 April 2017 Seen him twice live, vs Partizan and Arsenal and looked really tricky both times.

Aus Fox Posted 7 June 2017 Posted 7 June 2017 The same names come up each and every window. Agent talk, lazy journalists or something in it? Or a mix of all 3

Ric Flair Posted 7 June 2017 Posted 7 June 2017 Laugh it off all we want but if we let him go Brughtin or anywhere else then we've lost our touch.

Who says we even want him? I've always felt that, in these situations, players go to the best club they can and all this talk of other interest is just rubbish. When we were in the championship didn't we allegedly beat off Newcastle in the Prem to sign Knockaert? Did we fvck. His agent just said they were interested to hurry us along.

True it certainly gets over egged but there are times when players are coveted by several clubs and it's usually the one who shows the most desire to pursue that gets them.
MC Prussian Posted 8 June 2017 Posted 8 June 2017 26 minutes ago, Swan Lesta said: Is this guy good enough for the Prem? 10 goals in 23 and that in a rather crap league. Had a couple of really good moments in the Champions League, though. Against Premier League opposition. But that was a bit like Mahrez last season, presenting himself to a larger audience.
