Sorry, but 80m would be a decent price, however any fee and we would struggle to replace him. Cost as an unknown was £35m, plus another £9m sell on fee. Leaves us £54 million for a replacement with a week before the season starts. We will also have paid agent fees and signing fees if say £10m. All to leave us probably worse off than we were.
Dahnsouff Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Just now, splinterdream said: We don't want to sell do we. That's where £100m comes in. It adequately compensates the club as this transfer is going to mess up our season. He's on a 5 year contract, we can just say no. Then say no, no price required as he is not in the market this year.

No price is the answer, he is not in the market.

Feels a weird one. They're free to do that. We let him smash it for a season with us and then they probably have competition to sign him

Not really....as we would have also got the 35million back that we paid for him minus say the 9million sell on fee. So more like 71million to spend assuming we got 80 million for him.

Popular Post Sharpe's Fox Posted 2 August 2022 Popular Post Posted 2 August 2022 Shouldn't be buying a player for £35 million and only getting a season and a bit out of them. Don't care who you are. 14

Anything under £100m now would be terrible business.
FoxesWalk Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Why is this hot? He’s not going anywhere. Did he like a tweet again? 1

The sides came to an agreement on Tuesday, the statement reads, with the fee believed to be €35m (£32m) with €5m (£4.5m) in add-ons. That above was the deal no sell on fee mentioned
Pliskin Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 Problem with selling Fofana is it doesn’t help us really. Yes we would get a fee in, but it’s a squad player we could do without losing and we will have to replace him. We need rid of the likes of Praet, Soumare, Perez and Hamza ideally. Adding a player into a potential sale wont help either, Colwill looks like he’s off to Brighton so that scuppers that one, and Gallagher for as good as he is, isn’t really what we need. So this transfer would damage us more than it would help us (apart from the bank). 1

Sorry, but 80m would be a decent price, however any fee and we would struggle to replace him. Because he’s one of the best young players in World football & has got 5yrs left on his contract. If he continues on his current trajectory how much will he be worth in 2/3yrs? 1

Agreed, it just possibly helps us speed up the departures of others whom as it stands might be being offered pitiful deals where we subsidise their wages heavily.
Matt Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 11 minutes ago, EnderbyFox said: Especially with the whole world knowing we've just pocketed 80m. We will end up having to massively overpay for a replacement. 30m bid for Bednarek incoming Which is why you do business before you sell? To a degree I understand what you're saying but it certainly isn't a reason to sell on the cheap, afterall "Leicester City will not be exploited by Premier League rivals"....I'd keep you're mouth shut Bren or get the situations straight with the club before opening your mouth.

trugerkem Posted 2 August 2022 Posted 2 August 2022 He isn’t going anywhere … this is speculation fueled by Chelsea unsettling him .. sky news because they have nothing better to do and love Chelsea … and about 500 foxestalk members wetting themselves … that’s in my opinion … but carry on as it is mildly entertaining to read all this guff
