I said more of a chance, kante reportedly never wanted to play for us in the first place, he said it was his dream to play for Chelsea and they were able to steal him for a fraction of his value. We have more of a history now, we are arguably a more attractive club than in 2016 so there is that aswell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxes_rule1978 Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 I’m hoping the news that Rodgers is staying will mean he signs a contract and wants to continue to be a part of the great project we have going here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid player but he's never gonna change a game or grab it by the scruff of the neck is he? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The whole world smiles Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 You lot our a negative bunch, I've not even seen him linked with anothet club yet and your already crying into your handbags. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 Can only see him signing a new deal on the proviso that if we don’t get Champions League next season then he can leave for a reasonable fee. He holds all the cards right now and, as others have said, if he has the kind of Euros we know he can then he’ll be able to dictate whatever he likes.

Worst case is he has an insane euros and adds 10m.onto his price tag. Fwiw, I think the euros will be a step too far for him. I reckon lots of foreign PL stars struggle at championships due to exhaustion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozartfox Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 Give him a rise. I personally do net get this lure of UCL ( a bit like Arsenal) other than the obvious cash that comes with it. If he is happy at Leicester and his wife enjoys living where she lives, hopefully that is more important than getting spanked by Barca and Bayern. Please stay Youri.

Babylon Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 He goes, then he goes. Can’t be arsed to whine about players moving on, it’s part of our identity now to buy, sell and strengthen. Just buy a good replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Hero Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 YT absolutely loves it at LCFC. Never say never but I hugely doubt he would be agitating for a move. Would have to suit all parties. I'd be very surprised if a new contract isn't signed very soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glorious Leicester Fan Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 In the current financial situation, how many teams could actually afford him? I cannot see Bayern buying him for 60 mil + PSG possibly, but would he want to play in the French league again? Man City/United/Chelsea arguably don’t need him. Which leaves Liverpool, but would they be willing to pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoveValleyFox Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 Youri has already had a shaky spells in his career (ASM). I hope that his current status and a looming Euros will make him want to keep his feet on the ground and cement his reputation at LCFC for at least another season.

Popular Post Bert Posted 23 May 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 23 May 2021 I’d be very surprised if he leaves. It’s going to take £70m and he’s very close to a new deal. He loves it here and he’s settled. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 Not going to read too much into his post-match, I have no doubt even if he had signed a new contract yesterday he would have been out at the end of game with the exact same emotional response and clapping the fans because that is exactly the kind of person he is 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam95581 Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 Not sure if it’s my head or my heart, but I’ve decided he won’t go this summer 1 - it’s incredibly hard to get transfers done when international championships are going on 2 - there’s been so much talk about a new contract that he must be close to signing 3 - it’s unlike us to sell a player without a replacement bedded in. I think Soumare will be his replacement but he’s still unproven (and not actually our player yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fightforever Posted 23 May 2021 Share Posted 23 May 2021 (edited) If he leaves I would not hold a grudge against him. He deserves a big move. Given it his all since he has come here. Won us a cup and took us a stones throw away from UCL qualification twice. Great professional as well. l don't see him at lockdown parties and what not. I wish him the best at his next club.
