I doubt it . we’ll need someone more prolific than him next season I know that , will we have to spend big on another striker ( yes indeed ) will we spend big on another striker( I doubt it ) . Getting someone to come to Leicester with premiership experience will be hard however I’d like to see someone like Calvert- lewin of Everton , we just won’t be able to afford anyone of a higher status The guy gets hurt lifting his purse !!!

In theory, he can sign a pre contract agreement with a non British club like Soyuncu did with Atletico Madrid from January 1st. Arsenal paid £12m for Jorginho last season when he was in the last 6 months of his contract. I believe Burnley spent £12m on Weghurst the January his contract was expiring also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aston Villa have shocked everybody with their impressive form this season as they currently sit in third spot, just two points off Arsenal in front. A main reason for their success is their ruthless attack which was strengthened by the addition of Moussa Diaby last summer. With Leon Bailey and Diaby rotating out wide, Emery has good options to choose from but lacks this in the striking department. Although Ollie Watkins has been incredible so far, an injury to the English striker could be detrimental to both their domestic and European ambitions. A new striker is therefore a priority signing for the former Arsenal manager with Leicester City’s Iheanacho emerging as a top target according to Football Insider. The Nigerian forward’s contract at the King Power Stadium runs out next year and could move for a bargain deal if the Championship club agree to let him go. Leicester City are currently three points clear at the top of the league and will have ambitions of securing automatic promotion to the Premier League I said this a while ago a mate who works at the Vile told me about this, think they would change their mind if the saw his performances lately especially v Ipswich !!

I’ve a Villa mate and we had a similar conversation on Tielemans. His opinion on Iheanacho was that Emery would get a tune out of him if required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 31 December 2023 Share Posted 31 December 2023 I'd love us to get some dosh. But whose paying for a lad who could be off to a tourno for the next month? If they don't need him right now. Surely a club would wait for a free in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUJimmy Posted 31 December 2023 Share Posted 31 December 2023 I was one of those who was delighted that he stayed and thought he would tear up the championship but for whatever reason this has not happened. I am sure the club would sell in January but two things would need to be in place: 1. There needs to be a club that would buy him. Villa doesn’t make any sense to me but maybe a Palace or Wolves level. 2. The player has to want the move. He might be quite happy with limited game time then pocket a tidy signing on fee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichfieldfox. Posted 31 December 2023 Share Posted 31 December 2023 He's a far more effective striker in a two, but that's not something Maresca's tactics employ. His form has been patchy of late but there is a fine player in there but it is probably time to sell him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard rumours that the 'muscle injury' he's supposed to have, is not a significant injury at all, just a minor 'niggle', to have the excuse to pull him out of AFCON, prior to completing for the Villa - and the chance to play in January.

I agree I think he could find better wages by signing for a lower half Prem side if he just waits out his contract here. But maybe he wants a proper fresh start and a club to convince him he'll be first choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
