He is pushing 27 so he would want a big pay day before it is too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted 5 May 2021 Share Posted 5 May 2021 1 hour ago, Finnegan said: Wouldn't surprise me if this is a bit like Kante a few years ago. He's hanging on because he wants to go to Juve or Inter but he ends up coming to Leicester because we actually bother to bid the tidy amount Atalanta can milk us for and he's left with little choice. Think that do but TBF that is more or less the same for any player, bottom line is if you have options then Real, Barca, Bayern and Man City are your preferred choice not Leicester. Gosens would probably sign for us but if he gets a better offer elsewhere then he'll go there, much like Tielemans was hanging on for a bit to see if he got a better offer.

FoxOnWheels Posted 5 May 2021 Share Posted 5 May 2021 It sounds crazy because we have hit these heights recently but we are a very exciting club to come and play for we can offer wages better than all bar 12-15 clubs in the world and have one of the best training grounds in football too, shouldn’t need too much persuading really.

Inter are flat broke will be a good reason and Juventus are also on a sticky wicket financially as they try to offload Ronaldo and his wages.

Pretty much sums it up. Ronaldo counts for something like 30% of the wage bill at Juventus. When you consider what he offers vs cost, he’s a headache that they won’t shift easily. Inter need to cash in on Lakaku but his spell at Manchester United wasn’t great. Would another Premier League take a gamble on him, for the money that Imter would demand. Most likely not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was interest from Man Utd, but they were waiting to see if Pogba would be sold before making a move for Youri His agent wanted to wait and see but Youri didn't want to wait around so pushed through the move to us https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11712/11759685/youri-tielemans-favoured-leicester-over-manchester-united 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Sionnach Posted 5 May 2021 Share Posted 5 May 2021 If we bought Gosens, Edouard and say M. Pereira we would not get much change out of 75 million. If we sold Praet because KDH is coming back and Hamza , we could realise about 30 million. Are the club prepared to invest the rest on the basis that income from Europe , TV rights and club promotion should cover most of that is the fundamental question that none of us know an answer to.

I think Lukaku is a different animal now, he's far leaner and quicker than he was at Man Utd and Conte has really developed his game with his back to goal. I think if he came back he'd take the EPL by storm. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocolate Teapot Posted 5 May 2021 Share Posted 5 May 2021 I legit can't see this signing. Hes a phenomenal player and I think he'll go elsewhere. Fabrizio let me down with Trincao last year and I won't let it happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he scored pretty much a goal every other game during his entire Premier League career (including at Utd) which is pretty decent. I reckon he’d do well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJB-fox Posted 6 May 2021 Share Posted 6 May 2021 Lukaku criminally underrated because of that shit United team that he played in. He became a bit of a meme due to his weight and first touch His goalscoring record speaks for itself. Brilliant forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
