Tielemans63 Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 10 minutes ago, AmarteyAndChill said: Watford rejected £30m for Troy deeney last summer, £35m? More like £45m. I meant £35m if it means he goes abroad as IMHO the money we might lose out on from a domestic transfer is off-set by the fact we are not significantly strengthening a rival. Not too many foreign teams can pay the sort of fee an English club can so in my opinion it's better to sell him for less to avoid him going elsewhere in the Prem. If he insists on staying in England then we should be looking at £45m+ in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban.spaceman Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Don't even entertain any offers under £60m. Hopefully we learned our lesson with Kanté. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazly Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 If Mahrez does jump this Summer its likely to put a hold on the reports of Gray moving on. If Mahrez is looking to move I'm surprised that Gray isn't being given more game time to assess our options for next season without Mahrez. Again its talk of silly money, £30mn for Mahrez. Only Leicester City could have a PFA player of the year valued at only £30mn, it'd probably cost £60mn to replace him like for equivalent. Have to say I'm not as phased about Mahrez leaving this Summer as I was concerned about it last Summer. Good luck to him, he has been good luck for us.

HankMarvin Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 REZ-Y TO GO Riyad Mahrez expects to quit Leicester this summer with Arsenal and Tottenham leading chase Algerian winger expects Foxes to honour a verbal agreement they reached last summer and allow him to leave RIYAD MAHREZ believes he’ll be allowed to leave Leicester this summer – with Spurs and Arsenal leading the chase. The Algerian wing wizard landed a four-year deal worth £100,000 a week in August after firing the Foxes to their stunning Prem title triumph last season. But he now expects to be allowed to leave the King Power, having reached a verbal agreement with former boss Claudio Ranieri that he would give them one more year. And Arsenal are expected to come in again after a failed move last summer. It is thought Leicester will hold out for a figure in excess of £30million. The Telegraph report that Mahrez is set to hold talks with Foxes officials, when he will tell them he wants a transfer. The 26-year-old is keen to compete for more silverware and believes he needs to move on after Leicester fell short of securing another season of Champions League action. Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is eyeing the likes of Mahrez and Palace winger Wilfried Zaha to bolster his front line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USFox Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 If he does leave it won't be the end of the world, just the end of a chapter. But you make a good point, there are teams that could have sold Gray for 30 mil just because of their name, let alone Mahrez. 30 mil is way too cheap, I wouldn't go for less than 45 mil. Think about how much it would have cost to buy Eden Hazard from Chelsea last summer, who played equally as bad as Mahrez did this year after his own PFA player of the year season. Chelsea would have placed a minimum of 70-80 mil for him easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blanchflower78 Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Seems like the right time for me. Should command a strong fee but money isnt ours or his motivation. He wants next step up and we should duly oblige. We are at a time of changes ourselves, new manager tbc, ageing back four, need to freshen up strikers and a young wide player desperate for more game time. Whilst im not convinced Gray is the answer week in week out we should bolster with another quality winger who is in his prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeGuy Posted 9 May 2017 Share Posted 9 May 2017 Bummer. But if he wants to go, then no point holding him back. Good to luck to him. Watch people slagging off until the end of the season and accusing him of having downed the tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
