Foxxed Posted 11 September 2020 Share Posted 11 September 2020 We failed to buy a french defender with a Mahrez-but-worse transfer request attitude possibly because of Puel. It’s nearly the perfect storm of hate right there. We just need Dennis Wise to pop up calling us all ***** and it’ll be a full-house. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted 11 September 2020 Share Posted 11 September 2020 We will sign him, and when we do, I will book a plane ticket to France, risk losing my job because I’ve recklessly flown to a country on the quarantine list, without a mask, and scream with laughter in Puel’s boring face..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lad1966 Posted 11 September 2020 Share Posted 11 September 2020 This whole window been frustrating with the potential of becoming disastrous. At the start of the window a right winger was a priority, but we are more desperate for a centre half and as yet we are no closer of resolving either positions!

Sunbury Fox Posted 11 September 2020 Share Posted 11 September 2020 Seeing Fofana's very unprofessional efforts to force a move from Saint Etienne make me think if he joins us and does really well he'll do the same to us if Man U come in for him in 2 or 3 years' time.

Here is the full article: Brendan Rodgers says selling Ben Chilwell to Chelsea was needed to help Leicester reshape squad 'The money is there and will go back into the squad... There are opportunities now to bring someone else in,' Rodgers said of the £50m sale By John Percy11 September 2020 • 10:30pm Brendan Rodgers has admitted that Ben Chilwell’s £50 million sale to Chelsea was required to raise funds for reshaping his Leicester squad. Chilwell completed a move to Stamford Bridge last month and Rodgers is now weighing up an offer for St-Etienne defender Wesley Fofana with the money. Leicester’s finances for transfers have taken a hit from the Covid-19 pandemic, with the club owned by duty free giant King Power, while missing out on the Champions League on the final day last season cost them around £40 million. Rodgers is preparing for the extra demands of the Europa League this season, and also has an interest in Bournemouth's Wales international David Brooks as he bids to bring "invention" to his squad. Funds will be limited, yet Chilwell’s sale will provide Rodgers with some scope in the transfer window, while fringe players including Islam Slimani, Adrien Silva and Rachid Ghezzal will also be offloaded to make more cash available. Rodgers said: “Ben has gone to join a great club and was brilliant for me in my time here, and for us the money is there and will go back into the squad. “There are opportunities now to bring someone else in. We will look to get players who can help us continue to improve. “Across the board I think there’s many teams where the possibilities have changed because of the pandemic. There is no denying that the market does change for us.” Rodgers signed Atalanta defender Timothy Castagne last week and is hopeful of agreeing a deal with St-Etienne for centre-half Fofana, 19, ahead of next weekend. Brooks, the attacking midfielder, is another key target but a move is being held up by the Championship club's valuation. At this stage Leicester would have to break their transfer record, which was smashed last season with the £32 million capture of Youri Tielemans, to sign Brooks, 23, with the price believed to be well over that amount. Though Rodgers has a number of wingers already at the club, including Ayoze Perez, Harvey Barnes, Demarai Gray and Marc Albrighton, the Leicester manager frequently demanded more goals and assists last season. Leicester finished fifth in the Premier League in 2019/20 and begin their campaign at West Brom on Sunday. James Maddison is set to be included in the squad after surgery on his hip at the end of last season. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Percy mentions we are after both fofana and brooks probably means we are lowballing them a bit on price which may explain his involvement over the weekend...... we likely don’t have the funds to manage a 25 mill fofana and 30 odd mill brooks as well as a couple more faces in addition to catangne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
