Glorious Leicester Fan Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 whilst I recognise the need for an wide attacker, we are not desperate. Our Club’s stature is on the up and this summer transfer window is an ideal opportunity to both exploit and cement our position as a top club. I want us to aim for the stars and buy young elite players (Dortmund should be our template). In regards to future signings, I think we need to ask the following question: Is he the best available option for a team that will (most probably) be playing in the CL?

After all, Bowen has relatively similar stats that Maddison did before we signed him (albeit they play in different positions). Now not many people can say that maddison doesn’t deserve to play in the UCL. I’d say the risk is not much less than buying an unproven player from a different league. Gerry Minn. So did Barnes

car1os Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 Wouldn’t be surprised if we go for Ryan Fraser instead - could do with a winger, as both Perez and Iheanacho are fine up front and Vardy will be back soon in any case. He’s also a proven PL player, provides plenty of assists, and his contracts up in the summer so shouldn’t be expensive.

He had a fantastic season last year but I’m not convinced he improves us that much.

I've actually been told by a former agent (who still has his own contacts in the game) that we are interested in Ryan Fraser. He is out of contract in the summer and won't be keen on signing a new deal currently because of Bournemouth's league position. There is a long queue of clubs wanting Bowen so going for Fraser instead may increase our chance of bringing in a new player.

Proven at this level and will be relatively cheap. The only issue I see with it is his preferred side is the left, were we play Barnes so one of them would have to play on the right but I'd be all over it.
Superpants82 Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 I know this transfer could see Bowen going to a number of clubs but Jimmy is the only true ITK I follow on twitter and as we're linked I thought I'd drop this in here
Lambert09 Posted 8 January 2020 Posted 8 January 2020 Bowen isn’t going to be as cheap as we thought. Hull have an option to extend his contract, which they will do. I’d guess This would be 25-30 mill

Derb Posted 10 January 2020 Posted 10 January 2020 Hi guys, Derby fan here in peace (Yes I know, booo) Just wanted to leave a comment about Bowen, As i've personally seen him many times. He's quality, too good for the championship and if you could sign him he would deffo do a job for you. His contract expires in June so you'd be able to pick him up relatively cheap... After seeing him a lot in this league, he tears it to shreds. Only 23 too. Good luck to you lot, would love for you to finish 2nd this year, shouldn't really say that as you're an east midlands rival but lets be real here, we're not going to be playing you for a long time! All the best lads, hurry up and let us sign Benkovic!
Finnegan Posted 10 January 2020 Posted 10 January 2020 Can we send King and James to Derby too? Plus Wes needs to go and complete the East Mids set. I'd love it if Derby could field like an entire ex Leicester side.

Lesta2014 Posted 16 January 2020 Posted 16 January 2020 Presume someone has chucked some money on those sites hence the dramatic drop? Guessing nothing in it as Ladbrokes go 6/1 and skybet still at 5/2?
Realjimbo Posted 17 January 2020 Posted 17 January 2020 Pity Steve Bull isn't a current player.... J. Bowen and Bully what a forward line!
