Atletico Madrid has released him from his contract, so he's currently a free agent. Think he'll want something a lot more long term than a 6 month contract.

RumbleFox Posted 29 December 2020 Share Posted 29 December 2020 Let’s just get Costa in, him and Vardy would be the most annoying trolling frontline ever. X 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw Dykes Posted 29 December 2020 Share Posted 29 December 2020 2 hours ago, Fktf said: You found them in your post. Without vardy and Youri we are hopeless, because there's no one in the squad to stand in for them. I don't disagree. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, but I don't think the club will be in a rush to strengthen either position. Maybe we'll bring in a young striker, but I doubt we'll be signing a replacement for Nacho until we sell him. I think we'll bring KDH back, probably in the summer, to be Youri's stand-in.

Guest Hansifüx Posted 29 December 2020 Share Posted 29 December 2020 (edited) I would like to see someone like Yusuf Yazici, he is having a great season at lille developing very well, he scored two hat tricks in the uefa cup. He used to play pretty much everywhere in the midfield and was not a striker but lille have started to use him as a striker (they often play with 2 strikers though), which could be an interesting turn. He has a fantastic left foot, good at set pieces, can carry the ball and plays fantastic final passes. He is in general an athletic player who in my opinion could develop further (he needs to improve his right foot). He had an ACL injury last season (but not an injury prone player in general) and is thus valued at the moment at 13m (but I assume his real worth is somewhere 30m), he is 23 years. not a good promo video to be honest (too many shots missing/failing the target .... ) but gives an impression Edited 29 December 2020 by Hansifüx comment on video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_Loyal Posted 29 December 2020 Share Posted 29 December 2020 Probably been mentioned already but Boulaye Dia from Stade Reims? Just turned 24 years old, scored 10 with 1 assist in 15 games in Ligue 1 so far this season, with his team sat down in 15th position. The French league teams are all desperate for money due to the tv rights deal collapsing too, so they'll be willing to take less. I haven't seen much of him, only highlights, so thoughts from others who have would be most welcome. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get one, he could struggle for pitch time anyway. As long as he'd be prepared to come here and fight for his place, what's the problem? Every Prem player these days has to expect that it's a squad game and he has to fight for the minutes he's given on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
