Wesley Fofana - He is no more - finished - forgotten.

Recommended Posts

Posted

Wes is going to be one of the top CB’s for a decade. Of course the big clubs are looking at him.  One of them has to jump first - but the player won’t want to be a bench warmer at one of them.  maybe one of them could put down a £40m deposit 😄

If he waits it out a year then he’ll have far better options than Chelsea. Given he’s just signed a new contract for five years (that’s meaty), surely you’re looking in excess of £100-£120m?

Man City, PSG also linked along with Chelsea again this morning. 

 

Sell him for less than Maguire went for and it'd be a travesty.

We won’t be selling him at all. Not yet.

Fingers crossed, might drive the price up. Couldn't see Chelsea going much more than £70-£75m, if that.

I really wouldn't be so sure, if we get a mad offer then he goes. Simple as that. 

 

As I said in another thread, we're stumbling into a problem next summer and being able to do some trading now will alleviate that bit.

We haven't inserted a release clause so there's no chance we will be able to sell him.

Would be stupid on his behalf to be “against joining Chelsea” does not mean in the slightest he wants it nor that we are interested in selling. 

Of course he's not "against" joining Chelsea (or ManCity or PSG)! Why would he be? It would be massive money and regular CL football.

 

But I can't see him pushing for a move just a couple of months after signing a new contract.

 

This is one of those "club is relaxed" moments: Any move will be on Leicester's terms (this year and next), but I expect they will want to get a replacement lined up before hand in any case.

 

Fofana is a generational talent, and won an FA Cup with us, and the club can hold out for whatever he is worth. A good season this year, and he will break a record in the summer.

Nope. 

 

Cyrinesbr on Instagram. She's French I think.

A nice bidding war between PSG, Man City and Chelsea could see him go for a record fee for a defender.

 

To honestly love him, but that gets us a good RW, CM and a CB.

 

Next summer would be better.

In which case PSG would be a good decisIon for him ….. won’t be popular call amongst his Marseille mates but a career is a career.

Would it? Considering we're already potentially losing Soyuncu, Tielemans, Amartey, Perez, Vardy, Kasper, Evans, Mendy, Choudhury, Bertrand and would have Ndidi, Maddison, Iheanacho, Vestergard, Praet, Thomas and Albrighton with just one year left. 

 

We've got a considerable amount of squad reshaping to do on the horizon, and a season of standing still isn't ideal.

If it's a bidding war, Chelsea is gonna lose. If we did lose him this year, I'd rather it be for obnoxious PSG oil money as opposed to obnoxious ManCity oil money, for all the obvious reasons.

 

Although with Chelsea, it would sweeten our pursuit of a couple of their players, they'd never match the Gulf money this summer.

We'd get a shed load for him (no Chelsea pun intended) which would be good... I'd only feel ok with a silly huge sum. Preference is he doesn't go but a serious cash injection would have its uses.

I’d have Kimpembe down the KP for the song alone …….don’t rate him as a player though …..

Yeah it's sooooo hard to comprehend that a) we know from a good source the club refused to deal in release clauses post Kante and Vardy and b) Actually considering them again might allow for a better negotiation tactic for renewals. 

 

But then, I expect nothing less.

I think we will have budgeted for a large sale of wes either next summer or the one following….. it would just pull the cashflow forward. The issue for us is replacements and whether him leaving this summer means we end making another vestergaard type disaster as a consequence
