What a coup for Rudkin/Macia as LCFC sign the world's first 4-legged footballer and manage to keep it under wraps. Imagine the jealousy of opposing fans when he tackles 3 players simultaneously.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmayne7 Posted 8 August 2018 Share Posted 8 August 2018 So we're spending £10m on this guy and whacking him in the development squad?! I'm thinking that he's involved in the first team if HM goes but otherwise he might be loaned out to the championship or another league who's transfer window doesn't shut until after ours.

Quote The 6ft 4in defender is considered a promising prospect for the future and, at 21, would not need to be counted in the 25-man Premier League squad. https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/maguire-man-utd-benkovic-soyuncu-1874670 This is just unreal.... I'm not used to us being this active in the transfer market since, um, I dunno Sven...... Edited 8 August 2018 by CarbonVirtine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine he is too good for the development squad. Can see him being involved in the first team squad. Puel has already shown he can be pretty ruthless with Simpson and I wouldn't be that surprised to see Big Wes relegated to 'not being required' and loaned out before the loan window ends, along with Simpson and Benny. That's what I hope anyway! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he's under the age limit he can play without being on that list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I hope anyway! I agree, he's come through an academy at a club that churns out talent, become a regular in their first team and played in Europe. He's not going in the development squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 8 August 2018 Share Posted 8 August 2018 IF this is the case of him going into the development squad. Wouldn’t it make sense to send him straight out on loan to a top championship club or somewhere like Cardiff (if they’ll be interested) for the season to get him use to English football.

With the age of our current squad I think we would struggle to name a 25 man squad over the age of 23 or whatever it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
