Bryn Posted 29 May 2021 Posted 29 May 2021 I mean we clearly don't want him, they're not gonna ship us £20m. £7m seems fair, I suspect if no other clubs came in Besiktas would probably have tried for another loan. If a few clubs are in I imagine we'll get the fee we want.
mozartfox Posted 29 May 2021 Posted 29 May 2021 If Rudders can extract 7m out of a Turkish Club, he deserves a Knighthood, a Statue and the Noble Peace Prize. They are all tighter than a Mosquitoes chuff (unverified) . 2
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 29 May 2021 Posted 29 May 2021 Bring him back just so we can have a mega shit off with him and Perez 1 2
moore_94 Posted 2 June 2021 Posted 2 June 2021 Olympiakos interested, we apparently wont accept less than €7m http://sportwitness.co.uk/clubs-seriously-considering-signing-leicester-city-foxes-wont-accept-e7m/ After signing Tiquinho Soares from Porto, Greek giants Olympiacos are looking to bolster their squad further and Sdna report they are interested in signing Leicester City winger Rachid Ghezzal. The Algerian spent the last season on loan at Besiktas and was instrumental in his side winning the double, scoring eight goals and providing 18 assists. Besiktas, as expected, are looking to keep Ghezzal for next season, but interest from other clubs such as AS Monaco is making things difficult for them. Olympiacos are now also believed to be in the picture as well, and it’s reported their interest is serious. Sdna claim Olympiacos manager Pedro Martins is keen to strengthen his squad with wingers and Ghezzal is on his list, along with Karagumruk’s Alessane N’dao and Arsenal’s Reiss Nelson. It’s also reported Leicester City won’t accept offers below €7m for Ghezzal, which could price Besiktas out of a deal. Ghezzal’s contract with Leicester City will expire at the end of June 2022 so the Foxes have decision to make this summer. 3 1
weller54 Posted 3 June 2021 Posted 3 June 2021 Is he worth giving another chance?.. 8 goals 17 assists While out on loan. Ok, inferior League and all that, but...... Don't want this to be another Kramaric scenario. Keep or sell?

Don't want this to be another Kramaric scenario. Keep or sell? If we don't get an offer above £7m I say keep him. It sends a message that we won't buckle from a fair price just because a player has only one year left on his contract and he might not be much good in the PL but he's better than Perez.

Just turned 29 so very different to Kramaric Quite a few clubs interested so we should be able to get the €7m we want (or close to) We have seen him in the Prem (and at other clubs) and this is the only season he has really excelled in his career Better off just taking the money and investing it into the squad 7
Leicester_Loyal Posted 3 June 2021 Posted 3 June 2021 Take the 5-7m and use it to pay for Youris new contract. If it happens that'll be the best thing Ghezzals done for this football club 1 2

Ok, inferior League and all that, but...... Don't want this to be another Kramaric scenario. Keep or sell? ..perhaps if we didn't know him it would have been a temptation to pick him up!!! He was so slow, never attempted to impose himself on the game and the only thing that I can say in his favour is that the personalities in our club at the time would have been incredibly overwhelming for a player in a new country. Just watching the confidence coming from him is amazing and you are looking at a new player. If we brought this player back, I am sure there would be a better performances now that it seems he believes in himself. 1
Popular Post MGLCFC Posted 3 June 2021 Popular Post Posted 3 June 2021 FT always makes me chuckle. If Ghazzel had never played for Leicester, but was being linked as a potential transfer target, and his stats from this year were being quoted, of course with the accompanying YouTube video of his skills and goals, people would be creaming themselves, hailing him as the next Mahrez. It seems irrelevant to some that most of our potential signing come from inferior leagues, as probably all are compared to the Premier League. The Portuguese, French and Belgian leagues are no great shakes, yet Fofana, Ricardo and Ndidi all came from these so called weaker leagues. Of course he will never return as he is not strong enough to withstand the rigours of English football. However, he won't be the first continental player, and some with much higher reputations, to come to these shores and be a failure. Good luck to the lad and I wish him well. Not everyone we buy will turn out to be a great signing. 7

All these clubs want mega money when we want to buy but are broke when they want to buy, fair enough but then they must have few young prospects, I'm sure @Ric Flaircould find someone worth swapping. 1

cruzFOX Posted 4 June 2021 Posted 4 June 2021 We're pricing him all wrong. Make it 699,000.00 mill not 7 mill. Just set him free and get the cash asap so we can spend it now.

WigstonWanderer Posted 5 June 2021 Posted 5 June 2021 (edited) What position does he play for Besiktas? Always seemed to lack pace and physicality for a winger, but might have managed 10. Maddison doesn’t have pace or physicality either. Edited 5 June 2021 by WigstonWanderer
