We would end up paying around 65m for him in the end for a player that is broken. We ended up with ward from them who yes is a steady goalkeeper but Max Value being there 4th choice keeper at the time should of been around 3 or 4 million not 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 6 April 2021 Share Posted 6 April 2021 I think folks are going to be seriously underwhelmed. There isn’t going to be any major spending from ourselves (and most likely every other club from outside the oligarch/super club mould). We’ve gotta burn some money on contracts - we’ve got three big assets with two years left and if their contracts continue to run, we are going to have a big problem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Posted 6 April 2021 Share Posted 6 April 2021 If money is as tight as some on here seem to believe, I wonder if we might look at Moussa Marega again. Linked with him a few times in the past and he's put of contract this summer..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to get rid of the remaining dead-wood and bring the curtain down on some players' times here as finances will not allow for sentiment. These savings can then be used to tie down the big asset players. Then it is a case of hunting for young bargains and trying to add some quality if we have UCL football to look forward to. Difficult times ahead except for the likes of the Manc. Twins and Chelski. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it isnt. I would be surprised if we have any net spend. Would not surprise me if like us most clubs will offset signings with sales and end with a positive net spend. For us to have a net spend on transfers of around 45mill as you have suggested we would need to make around 90mill from selling players. To do this we would need to sell one of our assets either N'didi, Maddison, Barnes or Fofana or Teliemans which as i think everyone would agree would be frustrating. I was expecting maybe 1 free transfer, one squad player for around 15-20mill and 1 or two loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heymister2015 Posted 6 April 2021 Share Posted 6 April 2021 (edited) Who knows what’s going to happen! Leicester might announce a huge sponsorship deal on the training ground for all we know, to offset any transfer spending spree. Also the proposed arena could be sponsored like the motorpoint arena in Shottingham. The planned accommodation could fetch a minimum of £700 an apartment also. So lots of money to be made with the most expensive plans developed Edited 6 April 2021 by Heymister2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt we'd get anywhere near those valuations for Ghezzal and Choudhury. I don't see anyone wanting to risk any money on Benkovic who is either regularly injured or can only manage at best to sit on a bench for Bristol, Cardiff or Leuven. I feel very sorry for him but at this point of time when teams are short of money, they're not going to risk it on a dud. Do you really think that we're remotely likely to spend upwards of 71m this summer? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can be anything like the player he was before Liverpool ruined him - that's a bargain but a big IF! I was really excited to watch him when they first signed him, but like you say, Liverpool have absolutely ruined him Definitely fits in the group of “broken players” that Rodgers would like to build back up, just think the finances may be a bit too high for him, might make a decent loan deal, but I imagine it depends on what else Liverpool do in the summer as their main midfield is getting a bit old now (Wijnaldum, Thiago, Henderson, Milner all into their 30s next season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
