Time to play hard ball with the Turks. I fully expect that Rudders is already hence no deal yet, that we know of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish clubs are an absolute nightmare to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah if it is an option to buy it is a bit stupid, hopefully we just bin them off and tell Ghezzal they messed us about too much, get some proper money for him from one of those Saudi clubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, if it's "obligation to buy" the that solves the problem but "option to buy" is a complete no no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 5 July 2021 Share Posted 5 July 2021 His dad expects the deal to be completed soon, 100% will be at Besiktas http://sportwitness.co.uk/leicester-players-father-confirms-son-will-100-continue-career-elsewhere-transfer-completed-short-time/ Leicester player’s father confirms son will ‘100% continue his career’ elsewhere – Transfer to be completed ‘in short time’ It seems that Rachid Ghezzal will finally be leaving Leicester City this summer, and he will be staying at Besiktas. Loaned to the Turkish side for the past season, the Algeria international was the star of the show, scoring eight goals and collecting 18 assists throughout the campaign, which spurred his current side to seek a permanent deal. They haven’t found an agreement with Leicester just yet, but his father, Mohamed Ghezzal, spoke to Fanatik on Monday and sounded fairly confident something would get done. He also, in the process, revealed another offer from a club in Turkey, although not one his son would be considering. He said: “My son is very happy in Besiktas. They will compete in the Champions League this season. Ghezzal will 100% continue his career at Besiktas. We expect the transfer to be completed in a short time. “After my son’s performance this season, Galatasaray also made an offer to us”. However, the Leicester player’s father went on to explain they did not accept the offer from the rival, and made it clear ‘it is very difficult for him to go to another team after this time’ at Besiktas. So there you have it: it appears the Foxes will be able to cash in on Ghezzal soon, with all parties walking away happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc_forever Posted 5 July 2021 Share Posted 5 July 2021 (edited) Along with Diabate, this was a signing that Puel wanted rather than one that our scouting system generated. Slimani was another signing that the manager insisted upon, even though Claudio was advised he was too expensive. Mendy I think was a similar case. General pattern is where our scouting team have suggested the signing, they tend to be far better than if a manager has insisted on them based on his experience. Wouldn't be surprised if Perez was also a case where it didn't originate from our scouting team. Edited 5 July 2021 by lcfc_forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slimani was someone we scouted and wanted, Walshy valued him much lower and that value would have decreased expectations all over the board and perhaps given him the space and weightless expectation that he’s benefitted from at clubs on loan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted it above, but it is possible as Napoli did similar with Milik recently where he signed a 1 year extension to make a loan to buy viable https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2021/arkadiusz-milik-will-land-in-france-this-afternoon-to-sign-for-marseille/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this was the same with a striker that Norwich signed (can't remember his name) we valued him at 500k, they bought he for something like 6 million.
