goody2028 Posted 8 May 2020 Share Posted 8 May 2020 He won’t be going anywhere. Playing in a team full of his mates on decent money and sat 3rd in the prem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from that, would like to think we could get a considerable amount for him and the club have some sort of idea regarding what they are going to do in terms replacements.

Popular Post ALC Fox Posted 8 May 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 8 May 2020 It'd be so annoying if we finish above Chelsea again and then they take another of our first XI. We're struggling to shake that lesser club tag. If Chilwell fancies London then there might not be much we can do, but I'd really like us to get to the stage where we rarely, if ever, sell our first choice players to our Premier League rivals. I could stomach it if Juve, Bayern, Dortmund, Barca, or Real wanted him, but f****** Chelsea. Makes me want to barf. At least it isn't Spurs I suppose. I hope the replacements we've been linked with can slot straight in if this does happen. I'm still a big fan of Ben's and think he can improve massively and be a big player for years to come. Plus if he leaves it could pave the way for someone to come along and turn Maddison's head. I'm not a fan of this link at all. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 8 May 2020 Share Posted 8 May 2020 Be a shame to see him go. Assuming it'll only be if we rinse them and have a replacement ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 8 May 2020 Share Posted 8 May 2020 We've gotta get at least 60m for him surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue ROI Posted 8 May 2020 Share Posted 8 May 2020 Would be disappointing to lose him to a club like Chelsea who have faded from their glory years. That said if it meant keeping all the other major players I wouldn't be totally against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fightforever Posted 8 May 2020 Share Posted 8 May 2020 (edited) We need 4 academy graduate players to get into UCL along with our 25 man squad factoring we only currently have 3 of these in the first team we should be charging at least 100m to even consider it since it lowers our options in terms of how many players we can take with us in the UCL squad unless a youngster were to break through the U23s and be at the level required to be useful at champions league level. It would be imperative that we keep him at all costs! Edited 8 May 2020 by Fightforever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ScouseFox Posted 8 May 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 8 May 2020 slightly interesting listening to the crouchy podcast today with andy robertson, they were going on and on about oh andy, you and trent, you are fullbacks like no other, you've changed the game, you're our heroes. and the first thing he said in response was about "leicesters fullbacks" doing similar. so he's obviously up there in the game. it'd be daft to sell him unless we get an outrageous bid, for me. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought they could find a cheaper alternative, especially given how some european clubs will be brassic ..... Yeah I do agree in theory chelsea will have money to spend but what I'm trying to say is the football economy is completely up in the air at the moment, for a number of reasons. 1. loss of revenues from being behind closed doors. Which is gate receipts, hospitality, food and beverage, events, sponsors etc I know in the premier league TV money and rich owners are king but this will have to have a huge effect on budgets. 2. Global recession. Just as an example In the USA unployment is currently at around 15% unemployment, this will be happening globally I doubt there will be a country that doesn't post a rise in unemployment in the coming months. I'm not sure when the current tv deals are up but this will have to effect the global TV revenue. Jobless and poor people don't tend to shell out for English Premier League games. 3. The potential collapse of leauge 1 and 2 meaning lots of out of work professional footballers potential pushing wages down (or up for that matter). Like I say I would be surprised if big clubs don't mainly stick with what they have this summer and see how the land lies in jan/summer 2021. I would be shocked to see chelsea spend the 170+ million on transfer fee and wages now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vindaloo FOX Posted 8 May 2020 Share Posted 8 May 2020 He is a young England international so we should ask for a big price. Happy to sell If the price is right. Philipp Max and Robin Gosens would be good replacements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Posted 9 May 2020 Share Posted 9 May 2020 What I believe: 1. He’s in Chelsea’s scout list. 2. We aren’t in talks 3. We can’t determine a value of the player currently - as no one knows revenue / monies available for next season. 4. They owe us about another £80,000,000 for Kante 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted 9 May 2020 Share Posted 9 May 2020 Chilwell is certainly ambitious- wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if he favoured a move. When is he contracted until? Staring England left back 23 years old... we don’t have to sell and Chelsea are cash rich having had a transfer ban. 90 million please or do one!

davieG Posted 9 May 2020 Share Posted 9 May 2020 Report: Chelsea eye Fode Ballo-Toure, boost for Leicester in race to keep Ben Chilwellmm ByLee ConnorPublished on May 9, 2020SHARETWEET Leicester City could be set for a boost in their hopes of keeping Ben Chilwell, with Chelsea reportedly eyeing Fode Ballo-Toure as a cheaper alternative. According to Foot Mercato, the Blues are keeping a keen eye on Ballo-Toure, who could be available for less than half the £50m Chelsea may pay for Chilwell. Fodo Ballo-Toure could be a target for Chelsea if they decide to move on from Ben Chilwell. (Photo by VALERY HACHE / AFP) (Photo by VALERY HACHE/AFP via Getty Images) The 23-year-old has developed into one of the most exciting prospects over in Ligue 1. Currently playing for Monaco, Ballo-Toure looks to be the next in a long line of players to impress for the French club before being sold on for big money. However, Monaco are unlikely to demand a fee as high as Leicester will for Chilwell. That could well convince Chelsea to take a punt on Ballo-Toure, especially with market uncertainty growing. Chelsea have long been admirers of Ben Chilwell but could move for alternatives if Leicester stand their ground. (Photo by Mark Runnacles/Getty Images) Leicester, on the other hand, will be hoping the Blues do go abroad. The Foxes are desperate to keep hold of Chilwell as they look to make a real go of things in the Champions League next season. Chilwell the man, but Ballo-Toure is an interesting alternative – TBR View While you’d expect Chelsea to still make a play for Chilwell, it is interesting to see that they are already looking at other players. Could this mean that Leicester are digging their heels somewhat when it comes to the England man? That, of course, remains to be seen. Frank Lampard is a big fan of Chilwell and he fits with the Chelsea manager’s ethos of playing young players with the ability to develop further. However, money can sometimes talk. If Chelsea feel there is better value abroad, then they won’t be afraid to explore the European market again. https://tbrfootball.com/report-chelsea-eye-fode-ballo-toure-boost-for-leicester-in-race-to-keep-ben-chilwell/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
