Arriba Los Zorros Posted 4 July 2023 Share Posted 4 July 2023 I really like Tim but he has got to go, we need a united dressing room with players who desire the best for the club. Brendan must have sucked that out of him so thanks Tim for the 15 mill and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolucklcfc Posted 4 July 2023 Share Posted 4 July 2023 Decent player but not worth him sticking around if he doesn’t want to be here. Just take the hit and get rid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaggertvsWise Posted 4 July 2023 Share Posted 4 July 2023 3 hours ago, Iran said: 'Flight booked' as Italian giants look to complete €15m Leicester City transfer' Latest Leicester City news from LeicestershireLive amid claims that Foxes defender Timothy Castagne is closing in on a move to Juventus Juventus director Giovanni Manna will reportedly travel to London this week in a bid to sign Leicester City defender Timothy Castagne. The full-back featured in all but one of the Foxes' Premier League matches last season but could not help them avoid relegation. He scored two and assisted three and has reportedly attracted attention from Arsenal this summer. Reports have previously claimed that a move to Turin could "soon take off" but the transfer fee for the Belgian remains an issue, describing it as "excessive". And Calciomercato.com are now claiming that the Italian giants' director "has a flight booked" for the capital and will "be in London on Thursday" for talks.

Foxes96 Posted 4 July 2023 Share Posted 4 July 2023 I highly doubt we are getting £15m. I thought Juve baulked at the €15m figure we were after, the title of the article seems a bit misleadingly But anything above £10m we should take, and move on.

STUHILL Posted 4 July 2023 Share Posted 4 July 2023 He is actually a very good player, and showed it at times with us. However, much like the club as a whole, has declined quite rapidly with us and I want him to go. Not surprised we are able to get £10-15m for him or the fact Juventus are interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mozartfox Posted 4 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 4 July 2023 Italian and Turkish teams do not pay transfer fees. They offer to take the player, pay 30% of his salary and conveniently forget to trigger any contractual option or obligation to buy. Basically time wasters. May be tell this chap in advance that we are open to negotiations on the fee, but forget about loans and options. So may be he stays in London and tries to rinse West Ham. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scored a brilliant goal against them in the Coppa Italia the season before he came to us: He suited them superbly in their system, just like Gosens.

TrickyTrevLeftPeg Posted 4 July 2023 Share Posted 4 July 2023 If we buy Doyle for 8-10 mill then surely take the same for selling Castagne Either way we'll be quids in due to less wages we'll need to pay for Doyle than Castagne. 1 out 1 in 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post orangecity23 Posted 4 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 4 July 2023 This will be delayed even further, Juve guy is still trying to convince British Airways to let him have the plane tickets now, and they will give them an option to pay for the plane ticket in 12 months time maybe. They've also leaked several gazetta articles saying the plane itself is very keen to take him to London, and has its heart set on transporting him here as they have reached a total agreement. This is why Alitalia went bust 2 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's even with a few loans or free transfers amongst them. The likes of Praet and Vestergaard we should just accept a nominal fee of a few million and all their wages gone. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
