Leicester_Loyal Posted 28 September 2020 Share Posted 28 September 2020 Good move for him. You'd like to think if he was going to make it here he'd be getting into the squad within the next 18 months or so. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incognito Posted 28 September 2020 Share Posted 28 September 2020 Good move for him. I don't see him breaking through now, so as a club it makes sense to help him find his level. Hopefully he can shine with Wigan and perhaps get himself a Championship move at the end of the season. I'm sure his Godfather will give him a few pointers about life with the 'tics also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 22 He might be 22 but he’s not had a lot of “proper game” experience and CB is about experience too. Wigan will be a good move for him and better than playing U23 or just being in the fringe. He has a lot of potential but needs to build the know how Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 28 September 2020 Share Posted 28 September 2020 Quality use of the word "ace" in the headline there. Can you be a Leicester ace without having made an appearance for Leicester? Not for me to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stadt Posted 28 September 2020 Share Posted 28 September 2020 Kipre did well with Wigan and got a move. Hopefully Johnson can do the same because he's not going to make it here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 22 As someone has already said he's hardly had any first team experience, 30 or so games will do him good. For what it's worth I don't think he'll ever make it here, I think he'll be moved on either this summer or next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that it's only till January. His contract expires in June next year so maybe we'll try and get some money out of him in that window? Or perhaps we'll play him in the cup? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know -- you would think that it is on Wigan's side, since we would have a recall option if we needed him in an emergency. Maybe they are uncertain that he's League 1 quality? I mean, he didn't razzle-dazzle in Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
