This is either inflation or something has gone wrong in the system. I see him as a quality player but for whatever reason, it has not worked out, but he could go elsewhere and put in another championship-winning season.
happy85 Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Monaco are in talks with Leicester City over a loan move for Boubakary Soumare. It’s understood that the Ligue 1 side are pursuing Soumare and see him as an option to strengthen their midfield. David Orestein
GingerrrFox Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Still not convinced he’s going. He’s got ages on his contract, he’s clearly a talented player and plays in a position where Brendan likes to have multiple options. Unless he goes for more than we paid, I really don’t think the club are ready to jack him in, he was heavily scouted and the recruitment department really rate him, it’s down to Brendan to man manage him correctly.
Lesta2014 Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Loan with Monaco paying wages for a year, frees up a squad space then. Can get either of the linked midfielders in then.
Popular Post Babylon Posted 5 July 2022 Popular Post Posted 5 July 2022 **** off with a loan, you’ve trousered £100m and he’s proven in that league. 13

It doesn't benefit us in any other way and it will not resolve his position to fit in our team.

turlo Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Tanner is reporting it's a loan. No idea where this 30mill bollocks talk came from

Hard to believe, but if true, £13m is not going to cut it. I get that mate but look it in a positive light - save ££‘s in wages for a year, get a £2m loan fee AND £13m at the end of the loan when offset that against his what £18m fee that’s a relatively cheap gamble, which on this occasion didn’t come off.
Tielemans63 Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Not on favour of a loan. Try and recoup what we paid imho.
Ric Flair Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Tell them to bollocks at this stage if it's only a loan. I don't see much merit in a loan with an obligation to buy either given they are wedged up to the tune of £100m from Real Madrid and the bastards had our kegs down on Ghezzal who they got on a free and sold to us for £12.5m a year later and doubled their money on Tielemans who a bit like us with Sounare, wanted him gone. £15-20m straight permanent deal.
TommyK Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 If the problem is not money, but number of players and wages that is stopping us improving the squad then I'd be in favour of a loan move. Hopefully he sorts his shit out and comes back a stronger player.
Phenom Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Not in favor of a loan unless there is an obligation to buy.
st albans fox Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Bouba has had a v difficult year with some mental issues Monaco will not want to buy a player who may have lost his way completely hence a loan is likely to be the best we’ll get this year ….

Of course money is a big consideration, loan deals are only advantageous if we either think it will improve him for us long term or because there's no alternative option in moving him on. I see little merit on loaning him back to France to improve him for English football, he's just won Ligue 1. It's more he's just not settled or adapted and I see teams like us in the PL get had over time and time again on deals like this. 8
Dandy king Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 I'm in favour of a permanent loan for a large transfer fee 1

Whats unusual is that we are only one of four European clubs without any debt along with Chelsea, man city and psg. Seen alot on here recently about club finance but I trust them to get it right Agree monaco should cough up tho. The guys stock should still be high in France really 1
kingfox Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 Had a feeling this could go the way like Ndombele at Spurs. A player who quickly lost his way loaned back to France. I’d rather we sell, sign Kouadio Kone as his replacement, so it can yet again be proven that I’m better than Martyn Glover.

If we are sure we are not going to use him this coming season, then the loan helps our wages and is one body less in the registered squad. Should Soumare excel for them, it may push up his value, so this is in effect, a shop window for him. We do not have to insist on an option to buy or to try to tie Monaco down to any obligation to buy. This league might just be where he fits, and therefore there is more chance that he increases his reputation and also his price.

fox_up_north Posted 5 July 2022 Posted 5 July 2022 A loan, at this stage, doesn't really help but kicks the can down the road. If he is to be loaned for development, it needs to be to an English club. Just sort a deal and cut your losses.
