Grebfromgrebland Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 Claims Leicester have signed 17-year-old from Paris Saint-Germain, very versatile forward As is the norm these days, Paris Saint-Germain have lost yet another of their talented youngsters, this time Leicester City being the ones profiting from the lack of first-team chances for academy products in the French capital. According to emerging PSG source Paris United, who, up until the Neymar story, which is all over the place for everyone, had enjoyed a strong track record this summer, claim Alassane Meïté has signed a three-year deal with Leicester. The 17-year-old, who is capable of playing across the front three with relative ease, explained in an interview with Foot Mercato back in 2015 he models his game on Sergio Agüero. Unfortunately for him his goal of ‘signing a professional contract at Paris Saint-Germain’ and ‘imposing himself’ at the Ligue 1 side is one he won’t be accomplishing just yet, and a few years in the Premier League with Leicester City, or at least the Premier League 2, might help him develop enough to, perhaps, one day return there. Capable of hitting the ball with both feet, although he prefers his right, Meïté could become an interesting addition for Leicester and Craig Shakespeare, especially with the club half-preparing a Riyad Mahrez exit, but it might be some time before we see him in the first-team at the King Power Stadium.

Adster Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 I'm guessing he's a "god on FM" or something? FM'ers, what's his stats?

lcfcfan12 Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 90% of our youth players never play for the first team so pretty unlikely we'll see him.
brucey Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 Had enough of these kids who join us thinking we're not that good a team and therefore they'll get playing opportunities, all the time wanting to jump ship to a big team asap Much rather have the kids who join us because they rate us and idolise Vards

Rudders has probably guaranteed him first team football

Clever Fox Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 I wouldn't be knocking the Club or him. I'm old enough to remember when we signed lads on the way down. now we're signing lads on the way up. Only time will tell if he makes it. But I have a good feeling about this one. He'll also add to our very impressive growing group of good young players. The future is looking very secure.,Now we just need to concentrate on the new season and get the squad sorted.
lfu Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 Summary from a PSG fan on twitter Translation: For those who do not know him, he was born in 2000, spent a long time injured and has played little in U17, not a "prodigy", only a good advantage player
urban.spaceman Posted 26 July 2017 Posted 26 July 2017 Born in 2000. Which means he probably wasn't even alive when Martin O'Neill left Leicester City. Christ.
