dbtcity Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 Wouldn’t be a genuine transfer link without the obligatory YouTube video... he actually looks superb even better than the Turk (Solely based off YouTube vids )
mozartfox Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 Gerrimin. Especially if Benko is going out on loan to our Midlands Feeder Club
Guest SO1 Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 Either one. Juventus. Talk about an embarrassment of riches when it comes to defenders.
Tielemans63 Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 Loan would be good as we did when Aleksandr Dragovic joined from Leverkusen.
Tielemans63 Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 Just had a shuftee on Twitter and there's a fair bit of buzz coming out of Italy saying he's joining for €35m. Juve fans seem delighted about it
dbtcity Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 One of my Serie A watching mates compared him to the Italian Mustafi ffs
Gerard Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 Hallmarks are there for this to be a bad signing if it happens. The Juventus fans are ecstatic almost to a man that they'll palm him off on to us.
Gerard Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 I can't find a Juve fan with a good word to say about him.
st albans fox Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 bit concerned at the number of juve fans who don’t rate him ...... in the past, that’s not gone well for us although plenty of monagasques were happy to see the back of YT .......
North Leeds Fox Posted 24 December 2019 Posted 24 December 2019 He appears to be an Italian john stones. Guess it's just dependant upon how much anyone would pay for a 25 year old stones. 20 to 25 tops?
MC Prussian Posted 25 December 2019 Posted 25 December 2019 Ok, so Juventus fans don't rate him? Fine by me. Doesn't mean he can't do the job in the Premier League. Besides, let it sink in - we're linked with a Juventus first-teamer. Gone are the days of Championship Manager dreams.

Isn’t that the point though .... he’s no longer a first teamer .... still can’t see this having legs ....
TJB-fox Posted 25 December 2019 Posted 25 December 2019 Honestly who actually gives a **** if Juventus fans rate him or not. It bares absolutely no meaning to how he will play in the premier league or at our club if he were to join. Some people have too much time on their hands.

There were West Brom fans who told us Evans was shit. It might be that Rugani is more suited to the English game. Who knows? Let's see him in a blue shirt first.

Seen on a Fiorentina forum: Honestly who actually gives a **** if Leicester fans rate Ghezzal or not. It bares absolutely no meaning to how he will play in the Serie A or at our club if he were to join. Some people have too much time on their hands.

West Brom fans never said Evans was shit, more like insinuating he was going through the motions in his final season. Up until then they thought Evans was their best player.
CUJimmy Posted 25 December 2019 Posted 25 December 2019 On 22/12/2019 at 16:15, Gerard said: Demiral is the man, Turks on twitter rate him higher than Soyuncu. He's also only 21 and would be a player who would probably be happy to be a squad player for half a season and back himself to force his way in. One of my daughter’s Uni friends is Turkish. He rates Demiral more highly than Cags and was telling us how good Cags was even when he couldn’t get into our team.
Jonezy Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 This Rugani rumour smells like the Ward and Ghezzal deals. Hope we are not overpaying for someone's reserve player again. If we can get him on a fair price, then why not, but I like the idea of a Turkish Wall so much more.
lcfcdamo Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 My uncle is Italian and a massive juve fan watches everyone of there games says hes good player when he first come onto the seen he was fort of has the next nesta. Hes obviously gone abit down hill but still a very good player. Hes also says he has a mistake in him but would be a very good cb for Leicester

jeffschlupp Posted 2 January 2020 Posted 2 January 2020 Can't find the original report but Sky Italia saying us and Arsenal lead Milan for him: https://app.football-italia.net/?referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.football-italia.net%2F148191%2Fleicester-lead-rugani-chase#article/footballitalia-148191 Will cost €20-25m (roughly £17-21m) which is about what we paid for Praet. Seems that's the going rate these days for half decent cover and squad depth. Juve fans aren't that keen on him but he's 25, Italy international, played in an outstanding defence, learned from Chiellini, Bonucci etc., 6 ft 3, never had an injury lay-off longer than 4 weeks. Loan with option to buy for €20m would be very decent business IMO.
