We are clearly after a lot of French League players, reminiscent of when we got Kante and Mahrez.

 

France is a great place top do business as it's probably the biggest hotbed of talent in the world and their clubs aren't that rich so the players are obtainable. Puel being French should have plenty of knowledge and contacts and with his reputation for bringing through young talented players it's a market I hope we can fully exploit.

It's getting a bit out of hand with all the scouting in France and Africa... Comes across as a bit of a one-sided or even desperate approach.

 

Sarr was subject of some ridicule in November, after Olympique Marseille turned him into a Brazilian:

Sarr's also admitted to smoking the shisha/hookah in his spare time:

OM fans aren't overly impressed with Sarr.

Might be down to manager Rudi Garcia often playing him as a right-back or right wing-back in the past.

Marseille are rich.

My guess is Marseille would be glad to let him go, but are holding out so they can squeeze more money out of LCFC.

Sarr at this moment in time seems to be a bit of a panic buy (at right-back).

It does look a strange buy as he's cheap but 26 later this month. 

 

We have 31pts so need to panic for a right back when we have Amartey playing reasonably well, Simpson back at the end of the month and a few players like Albrighton, Dragovic and Benoulane who could be used at a push.

We've got an abundance of attackers and go on record as saying we need to move some on and then we bring back Barnes, sign Diabate and bid for this lad. Hahahahaaa he's off his head.

To the tune of Barry Manilow's Copacabana:

 

His name is Bouna

He plays for Leicester

With French-y flair he score a goal, to make you wish you'd stayed at home

His name is Bouna ...

 

And repeat. It's an obvious yes from me. We'll have to ignore the fact he comes from Gunina. I can't fit it into the song. It was under French colonial rule. I'm sure there aren't any culturally sensitive issues there.
