Jaspa Posted 31 July 2020 Share Posted 31 July 2020 It's either give him a new deal or sell him. No point letting his contact expire, we've seen enough to have a fair assessment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 1 August 2020 Share Posted 1 August 2020 He is probably the most frustrating player we've had in donkeys years. There's clearly a player in there he just turns up so infrequently I do think we'll be best to flog him, but only after we've got someone in who's better, we aren't exactly dripping in wingers.

davieG Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 Exclusive: Tottenham open preliminary talks to sign Leicester City star By Wayne Veysey -25th August 2020 at 11:24am1 Tottenham have held preliminary discussions over signing long-time target Demarai Gray from Leicester City this summer, Football Insider understands. Spurs manager Jose Mourinho has stepped up his pursuit of the wide forward, 23, after being given encouragement over a potential deal. An industry source has told Football Insider that Mourinho has personally spoken to Gray, 24, as he looks to convince him to move to north London. Gray is believed to be open to the possibility of moving to Tottenham after failing to nail down a regular starting spot in Brendan Rodgers’ side. The winger is predominantly used as a substitute by the Foxes and made just three Premier League starts last season among 29 appearances in all competitions. He has entered the final year of his contract at Leicester and they could be forced to cash in on him this window rather than risk allowing him to run down his contract and leave for nothing. Former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino was also a firm admirer of Gray’s dynamism, electric pace and ability to provide cutting edge in the final third. Spurs bid for him before he signed an improved Leicester contract in 2017 and have continued to track his progress. He has now accumulated 167 appearances for the Foxes since signing from Birmingham City, accumulating 13 goals and 17 assists. He made 78 appearances for the Blues before switching from west to east Midlands four years ago. https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive-tottenham-open-preliminary-talks-to-sign-leicester-city-star/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdb Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 He showed some good glipses after the return and would be needed more this season, but anything approaching £20m (my own arbitrary guess) we'd surely have to take. Perhaps a Bergwin swap? Didn't seem to feature much after the restart. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slymunn Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 They also don't know if he is 23 or 24 in the article 😂 would have to see what the offers are for him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hales Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 I would actually like him to stay. He was great as an impact sub for us post lockdown. I think he has worked on himself mentally and physically and think he gets one more chance. I hope he proves himself. I don't think he will ever be a starter but as a squad player and being an impact sub then great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 We probably have to sell if he's showing no interest in signing a new deal, otherwise we'll lose him for free next summer. Our issue is that if he goes, that's another player we'll have to sign, heaven forbid Albrighton is anywhere near the first 11 next season.

AKCJ Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 Wouldn't like to sell him because we're short of wingers. Selling him would mean we'd need two new ones IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peach0000 Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 I reckon we could get a huge fee for him. I don't think he is worth one but I think the right buyer may pay 40 million for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowlattsFox Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 I wonder if changes to the English quota over next couple of seasons mean we might see signings like this, English squad fillers. Going to cost a bit though to perform a role like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 He’s a bits and pieces player. Can carry the ball, beat a man, no end product, shooting is erratic and has questionable decision making. Does that make him a poor player; far from it. He has the attributes to be a top, top player. He just needs it to click and potentially he’ll be brilliant. With him being in the final year of us contract, you can see him going if the offer is in the region of £15 - £20 million. Frees up a space to fund a wide player as well.

dbtcity Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 Last year of his contract so we’ll get next to nothing for him... with our lack of wingers I’d personally keep him unless we’ve got a couple in the pipeline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
