I don't believe for a second Fenerbache were prepared to pay £16m for Musa. If it was up to me I'd be trying to force Hull into buying him. We already owe them a lot of money for Maguire and Jakupovic so we could neutralise those payments. Slutsky has already worked with Musa for four years so he knows exactly what he brings to the table. We've already seen what quality Championship players go for and it would be a real coup for Hull to bring in a 24 year old player who has so much Champions League and international experience who has settled in England for a year.

Dan LCFC Posted 9 August 2017 Share Posted 9 August 2017 I know we overdo the "I'd drive him there" comments but I think even though it's Fenerbahce it still applies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSpaM Posted 9 August 2017 Share Posted 9 August 2017 He's been one of our better strikers during pre season so I'm not really sure why people are so willing to let him go We need backup for Vardy and Nacho, currently Musa is that backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer to still have that option if somebody gets injured tbh If Vardy and Nacho are both injured at some point this season are we really going to be playing Slimani and Okazaki up front? Considering our counter attacking game is that really going to work? I honestly think Leo will go somewhere on loan anyway, so that leaves us with no strikers on the bench should unfortunate injuries occur. I know Tom Lawrence is an option but he's completely unproven at this level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Tom Lawrence is an option but he's completely unproven at this level Considering we don't have Europe then we already have six players who can play up top in Vardy, Iheanacho, Slimani, Ulloa, Okazaki and Musa. If we have an injury crisis to our forwards then Mahrez, Gray, Lawrence and possibly Barnes can play No10. Granted that some of those may not be here by the end of the month but I think we're already top heavy in strikers considering we'll be playing once a week most weeks.

Agreed were top heavy currently, but I don't think Musa should necessarily be the first out the door if were looking to lighten up the options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenerbache are about to spend £9m to sign Roberto Soldado. If they class Musa as a striker, they won't want him now - or at least won't want to spend £16m on him.

Ric Flair Posted 9 August 2017 Share Posted 9 August 2017 I'd like us to shift Musa and Ulloa and get Che Adams from Birmingham for £5 million, maybe with a loan straight back to them. He's definitely going to be a decent player in the next few years at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
