We used to require that both guys had experience -- of being sent off against us. But I guess our standards have slipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supergray22 Posted 28 August 2022 Share Posted 28 August 2022 (edited) This would be a sensible buy at the right price. Particularly if it helped resurrect Calgars foxes career. Edited 28 August 2022 by Supergray22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 29 December 2022 Share Posted 29 December 2022 https://sportwitness.co.uk/not-be-underestimated-leicester-could-think-of-replacing-player-with-24-year-old-fee-easier-for-pl-side-to-match/ Atalanta’s Merih Demiral has ended up in the sights of Leicester City, according to a report from Italy. Çağlar Söyüncü is one of the centre-backs currently at the King Power Stadium and his deal runs down at the end of this season. The Turkey international is expected to leave in 2023, and this has seen Leicester look for his replacement. According to FcInterNews, Brendan Rodgers’ side could ‘think of replacing’ Söyüncü with his compatriot, Demiral, and the Foxes option should ‘not be underestimated’ for the Atalanta centre-back. The Serie A defender was proposed to Inter Milan in the summer and his name is linked to the Nerazzurri again due to Milan Škriniar’s contract situation, which expires at the end of the current campaign. However, Simeone Inzaghi’s side don’t consider signing Demiral because of Atalanta’s demands. Atalanta are starting from €40m and aim to get no less than €30m for the player. As per the report, it is ‘easier’ for the Premier League clubs to match this figure, where Leicester shouldn’t be underestimated as an option for Demiral. The centre-back has scored two goals from 15 matches in all competitions for the Italian club this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if we're being used here to encourage Inter to make a move? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say, don't think we'll spend that big, especially if we spending more on a RW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyC74 Posted 29 December 2022 Share Posted 29 December 2022 Isn’t Glover’s MO more focused on youth players who can be developed and sold on at a profit. On that basis and limited funds i would have thought names likes Demirel would be unlikely this January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
