Leicester would like Diallo (below) but appreciate they now face competition from Premier League clubs such as Burnley and Sheffield United. United manager Erik ten Hag won't make a decision on Diallo and a number of the club's youngsters until he has looked at them on tour in the USA but it's important wherever the 21-year-old goes that he gets regular game time.

Safestandingfox Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Last sentence is interesting, Pellistri I think is a really good prospect still just struggled for game time being below Antony, would almost be tempted to go for him on loan especially if Amad has PL options. Test the waters on pellistri at the very least.
AKCJ Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Obviously yes but I doubt we'd get him. Similar to Palmer. I think he goes to a Premier League club. 1
sacreblueits442 Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 ...he looks a very good player, and could well be a #10, he has the talent and ability to find the time in the middle to enable him to play!!! He does remind me of Maddison, he has a lot of talent but has a tendency to lay the ball off behind his man as opposed to in front of his teammates. Coming from United and think he could be pricey but this is what we need to counter the experience that we have sought to bring in this season.
lcfc_forever Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 I'd be surprised if he didn't stay with Sunderland if went back on loan to the Championship. Maybe a smokescreen for other loan deals we're working on?
lcfc278 Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 The way Sunderland and United fans were raving about him last season I'd be very surprised if he's back in the Championship this season. I'd expect a loan to a mid-lower half PL team to take the next step in his development.
GingerrrFox Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Would rather Pellestri if we are taking a young winger from Man United.
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 How the mighty have fallen, now being behind Burnley and Sheff U when pursuing players. Absolute shambles! 1

Absolute shambles! That is what happens when you get relegated unfortunately, we need to be selling players the future, one that puts us back challenging in the Prem again and possibly Europe. If you want PL quality in the championship generally you have to manage to beat a couple of PL teams to the signing Edited 17 July 2023 by foxes_rule1978
Haywood_6 Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Competition from Premier League clubs Burnley and Sheffield United. Jeezy peeps man. That's made relegation really hit home. He'd be a great signing if we could pull it off though.

OadbyBlue Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Would take both him and pellistri on loan. We desperately need some depth out wide
StanSP Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Was very good at Sunderland. Think he'd fit in with how we play too. I'd be happy with this. 1

Ignorance on my part but Pellestri's stats look awful so far (not that it doesn't mean he's a talent) where as Amad was a revelation at Sunderland, particularly in the second half of the season. Diallo isn't realistic anyway as they'll be wanting him to go to a PL club or top league overseas.
lee7 Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Yes please! Watched him a few times last season and he ripped teams apart. Probably destined for a premier league side this season.

I think the gap has closed so much in recent seasons that clubs are skeptical about improving any established club. Deadwood sure… but with a. promising youngster that could help a team compete with you? I think clubs are giving it a lot more thought. Gone are the days when you loan out lukaku to someone like everton. I think the obvious exceptions would be sheffield u and luton but I think that we would be able to at least compete with them Edited 17 July 2023 by Lambert09

FoxyJim1987 Posted 17 July 2023 Posted 17 July 2023 Burnley are like that lad who just messed around at school and copied the clever kid in exams. Every player we want fvcking Burnley are there. We need ANPR checks on Vinny's motor to see if he's been seen anywhere near Seagrave lately.
