Josh King

[Dr The Singh]

Love abit of optimism, ain't happening though according to Al Jazeera Sports news

[Foxes96]

If we do get king surely we’d need to lose someone from the 25 man squad? (Can’t remember how close we are to the 25 man limit?) 

 

King in place of Demarai would be a good deal, provides good level of competition across all of our front players.

 

Not devastated if this doesn’t happen tho, still think we’ve had a good window and got a very capable squad.

It’s not happening, it’s not happening is it 

[Pliskin]

I would definitely be happy with this. He’s decent. 

[FoxinNotts]

We could just give him all of Andy Kings old clothes 

[foxoffderby]

Would prefer King to Perez

He'll never be able to do all the faces...

[FoxinNotts]

He definitely Norway’s best striker. Definitely 

[Gunnlaugson's Rizlas]

I’m just happy to see we managed to secure one transfer rumour at least today. Even if it is tenuous at best, I will suspend disbelief and fully buy into it so I can feel part of the deadline day excitement.

THIS DEAL IS GOING TO HAPPEN

Waiting for Stringer to jump on this.

[foxes_rule1978]

We need another striker, he is a decent striker with experience... wouldn’t come at a big wage or cost. Sounds reasonable

I think it would be less than £15m, spread over two instalments, and wages wouldn't be earth shattering

Bournemouth keen to move him on so a bargain to be had by someone, if not us.

Be a great addition to the squad. 

[kingfox]

A very underrated player.

 

Would give us another much needed forward option, King in, Gray out, would be good business.

 

If he striked up a partnership with Vardy like he did with Callum Wilson, he’d be an excellent signing.

It does feel like it would need to be either or and there's no way we are ready to give up on Perez given how much we spent on him.

[Guest Chocolate Teapot]

Unless its an absolute bargain I cant see it. Hes 28 and would want at least 50k a week. Like others have said does he give us that much more than perez?

I imagine if we got King he would bump Albrighton off the bench and be the cover for Barnes, and also another option upfront if needed

 

His performances last season for Bournemouth were:

Left Wing - 10 appearances

Second Striker - 8 appearances

Striker - 6 appearances

Right Wing - 2 appearances

 

Barnes Vardy Under

 

King Iheanacho Perez

I think if we managed to get him he would play a lot. Can play anywhere in our front 4. Ideal signing if we can do it

Does he get blown over by a light breeze also?

[Woodsey1727]

Would he be classed as a home grown player after coming through man utds academy?

Not at all, physically he’s very strong. 

[KFS]

Would be a great addition at this point.

I believe so.

[lcfc sheff]

He has scored 16 goals in a premier league season - potential is there!

[Scotch]

It's the hope that kills you....
