happy85 Posted 15 January 2022 Posted 15 January 2022 https://twitter.com/jacobsben/status/1482319538486194181?s=21 Leicester have looked at Leipzig’s Amadou Haidara and Norwich’s Todd Cantwell. But with no official offers, and a pretty thin squad currently, selling Tielemans in January will only happen this month with a ‘Harry Maguire’ style offer. #LCFC tend to negotiate strong sale fees.
FoxTrott Posted 15 January 2022 Posted 15 January 2022 (edited) £33m release clause, but will require over £160k a week salary. I don’t think he’d come here, sadly. Edited 15 January 2022 by FoxTrott

Can't say he is worth those figures at this moment. Edited 15 January 2022 by sacreblueits442 Update.
Duquesne Whistle Posted 15 January 2022 Posted 15 January 2022 Has a name close to that Egyptian cleric with the hook who was eventually deported from the UK. It's a yes from me, we need a bit more steel.. 1
Ric Flair Posted 15 January 2022 Posted 15 January 2022 That £33m release clause will make him very hard to get, there'll be clubs queuing up for him. Our only chance would be to chuff up more this month and that would require us to sell Tielemans at the same time. 1

I’m not sure what he means but bidding more than the release clause won’t do anything if there is another club who he prefers to move to who just bids the release clause. We’d just need to give him a big contract. I don’t see this one happening. 1

That's what I was thinking, it's out of the clubs hands if a release clause is met so I'm guessing wages/signing on fee is what we'd be throwing cash at.

You never know though, didn’t think we could get Daka and we did. Depends who’s in for him and if he thinks they’re the right fit/will be guaranteed starter etc. But if the clubs named in the press are really in for him, then we aren’t getting him.

The £33m release clause only kicks in this summer. If we were to offer £45m this month and the plethora of clubs that want him in the summer decide that's too much to act now then we narrow the field and stand a better chance of getting him. 1
turlo Posted 15 January 2022 Posted 15 January 2022 Man Utd were linked to him recently. Not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing but more likely a Rangnick target than Man Utds scouting, as fits his intense pressing system.

Ah, didn’t know that. In which case yes, we could go for him this month if Youri is off. Doubt either will move before summer though, its in both players interests to wait and evaluate their options.

Fair enough, to be fair if we went to 45 for him anyway I don't think any other big clubs looking at him would hesistate about an extra few million.
AKCJ Posted 15 January 2022 Posted 15 January 2022 Obviously yes but doubt we can get him without Champions League/Europaa League.

One thing we can probably say with certainly is that Leicester City won't be offering £45m for anybody this month

We won't see all these players lining up to go to Rangers or Celtic this year! They use CL football as en excuse but what they want is massive wages. I don't see an issue with them just saying that. 1

The teams that will be interested in Haidara will pay him roughly what we could afford to pay him. The difference is those teams will be in Europe and we won't.

Strange? How exactly, care to elaborate? Yes, that's exactly who I meant. It was an attempted hook/added steel pun which clearly wasn't very funny. Amadou Haidara is the same initials and sounds (vaguely) similar to Abu Hamza. Why the hell would I say it about Hamza Choudhury? The initials aren't the same and his name doesn't sound anything like the same. Edited 15 January 2022 by Duquesne Whistle 1
