moore_94 1,148 Report post Posted 14 October We were linked to him in April https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/who-leicester-city-target-omar-2799775 He was probably one of the players on the list of back up right backs until we got Justin He was also linked with Celtic previously We are probably only thrown into the list because we have prior interest from the club and also the manager Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jayfox26 1,389 Report post Posted 15 October Lazy journalism. Highly doubt we'd be after him when we have Ricardo and Justin. If there was any thoughts that we'd be selling Ricardo next summer (doubt we will/hope we don't), we would be looking at a much better replacement than this guy. Selling Ricardo for £70m plus and replacing him with a freebie from Olympiakos doesn't seem like something we'd do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’d make more sense but like you, I hope it isn’t the case. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clever Fox 1,030 Report post Posted 15 October He's a bit old for us at 27 and doesn't fit our profile. So I doubt we have any real interest unless he's a bit special. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

henrik_62 1,262 Report post Posted 15 October We tried to sign him last January, £4-5m was the figure being quoted, not seen much of him so no idea if he's any good or what, sort of recall some chat about him picking up quite a lot of injuries though.
