James Tarkowski

Recommended Posts

The article:

 

Brendan Rodgers has made a bid worth over £30 million for James Tarkowski, the Burnley centre-half.

 

Leicester have already had one offer turned down for the England international this month and are returning with a second proposal which they hope will persuade Burnley into agreeing a deal.

 

Rodgers, the Leicester manager, has identified a new centre-back as a priority in this transfer window and Tarkowski, 28, has been a long-term target for the club.

 

Leicester are operating under a restricted budget but have made a significant offer for Tarkowski, due to the pressing need for defensive reinforcements.

 

Burnley are demanding the £50m fee written into Tarkowski’s contract yet Leicester are hopeful of striking a compromise due to the severe impact of Covid-19 on football's finances.

 

It is understood that Tarkowski is interested in pursuing a move to the King Power Stadium.

28 years old that will have no sell on value doesn’t seem like the kind of move you’d see us make nowadays.... hopefully it is a smokescreen for big Wes 🙏🏻

he 28 not 32.  If he plays for a 5 year contract that is not a lot of money these days.

If the Fofana price is pushing up to £40m makes sense Tarkowski looks more palatable at maybe £35m? 
 

Plus with injuries to key players catching us out recently feels quite good to have a safe bet rather than what is a risk on a young player in Fofana. 

Didn't Burnley say tarkowski was £50m ?
