FoxesWalk Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 (edited) Odd. You’d imagine if we wanted him, he’d come here, with the connection to Maresca. Though I guess he will likely start every game there, might not with us since we are stacked at the back. Edited 1 September 2023 by FoxesWalk
ALC Fox Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 Season-long loan to Southampton with an obligation to buy for £20m if promoted. Pretty pricey but as sure a bet as you can get in this league. Presents a risk in the Prem but you'd back him to do well. Could have a £50m+ move in a couple of seasons to one of the big boys.
ozleicester Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 Obligation to buy... bet thats the thing that killed us 1

It's a bit more than the huge punt we've taken on Issahaku, which has surprised me.
DezFox Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 That’s disappointing, Southampton pulled a blinder there. Our deadwood the problem yet again. Their squad looking stronger than ours in my opinion. He was perfect for us and no interest in Souttar and and jannick refusing to leave is the reason it’s happened.

Jazzy_Jeff Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 Obligation to buy for £20m is a bit steep to be fair. I don’t think we need another CB anyway. 1

If I'm of the correct understanding, I guess with Issahaku, our insurance policy is Yunus Akgun - and vice versa. We could feasibly give both a good number of minutes to prove themselves and not trigger any compulsory purchase option for either. Or decide that one or both are worth the money.

A centre back is by nature going to play more than a young winger so the obligation is almost certainly going to be activated. did think we’d bring him in though so a bit surprised.

Guest Lcfc82 Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 That’s annoying, would have liked to have seen us sign him.

Not sure they do to be honest and they'll still lose 1st teams players today.
CosbehFox Posted 1 September 2023 Posted 1 September 2023 Saints badly needed that as their CB options are dire taking into account potential departures.

Similar kind of thing as with Soyuncu and Benkovic who signed at the same time.
