Kelechi Iheanacho

[one F in Fox]

I think this would be a really exciting signing.

 

I just can't see Jon "meek and mild" Rudkin being able to pull it off,

the bloke comes across as a real plank.

[Chico1958]

I'd have him in a heartbeat................ Don't see it happening though

 

But if they are sniffing around Kasper, you never know

You really think Mahrez will still be here by then? Musa too?

no but we have Ndidi,Mendy, Amartey, Slimani. A lot of players to miss for a month

 I would be surprised if three of them are still here in six months time let Alone two years

Don't think we should be splashing £20m on him personally

 

 

I've nothing against the bargain basement when there's special talent to be found but that doesn't mean we're likely to get a squad full of talent hiding almost out of sight in feeder-football.

 

Quality is quality and £20million isn't much to be paying for it these days. What irks me is paying big money for little return. Iheanacho doesn't just have goals in him but looks the kind of player who'd fit in fairly seamlessly too, which is a big consideration.

 

As for us getting in, we'll never know unless we try always assuming our manager rates him, when we finally get one!

Do we get a quota on how many Nigerians we can get in our first team?

It's like for every Nigerian we have, the premier league pay Leicester city £1m

[AS78UK]

Get this done and get this done quick! 

 

Can't believe people questioning the price, FFS Chris Wood is being branded about at the same price.....

 

Tammy Abraham  (Chelsea youngster) at 15m and he hasn't got premiership experience. 

 

Could be the signing if the window for the right club, just hope we are that club.

Yeah, lets not go after the stand out player from a wildly over achieving side in Serie A, wanted by Lyon and Everton.

 

Lets splash the cash for a lad that just got relegated pitifully

 

Yeh cos Boro's relegation was all down to Gibson. Boro actually conceded 10 less goals than we did, and it was pretty clear their relegation was down to a lack of attacking threat. Ive never seen Acerbi play (and neither will most people on this forum) so i can't comment on his abilities. But i certainly wouldn't want to sign a player just because they are being linked with Lyon and Everton. 

[Collymore]

100% yes on this one. 

 

I'd  predict 20 goal a season man with a full season under his belt. Much better option than Bony.

[Guest Col city fan]

A big fat yes to this one.

The only concern I'd raise (tentatively) is why Man City would want to offload a good young striker like this? Is he not that good?

Just a thought....

He just isn't as good as Gabriel Jesus or Aguero, but good enough to warrant a first team place at a Premier League team

Still eligible for Senegal, isn't he? Not been called up above U21 level.

My bad, apologise 

[foxes21]

Defending and pressing from the front is a massive part of our game and he's not that kind of player.
