The_77 Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 A lot of folks aren’t even considering that KDH himself is likely pushing for a move. 1

JimJams Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 1 minute ago, Number 6 said: He's worth more to us than he is to Brighton. I think this is the crux of it tbh. His valuation is tied to his importance to us getting promoted rather than his standalone value as a player, which means he's not going for the sort of fee you'd normally expect of Brighton. Though they spent £30mill ish on Joao Pedro. Their record signing.
LVFox Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 Would be amazed if this happened. I could see us selling him in the summer though if someone was willing to pay 35-40. Could easily invest that into 3 or 4 really talented players. Now isn't the time though. I do however, think Kiernan has a technical ceiling to his game that is mid-table prem. It would be madness to sell him now though. 3

Take 30M now and severely weaken our chance of getting promoted Or get promoted and have a 100M TV income boost. From an FFP perspective there's a huge advantage in not selling. And even if we sell, there's no guarantee that Brighton would pay the whole amount up front, so it's unlikely it would improve our current FFP balance. You are forgetting the occasion we signed Ryan Bennett because we were 15 points clear in the race to get champions league cash. 1 1

This is an insane one to me. We are not guaranteed to go up! Top of the league with 18 games to go but selling the best player in the division?!? We must be desperate. Even if we go up I feel like things will be grim. I'm confident we are already stronger than most that bottom half of Premier League. This makes no sense in any way shape or form unless KDH is actively trying to get out. 1
Simonb Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 Not a 30m player but at this stage in the season he's priceless. If he wants out then it's a different issue.. offer him a promotion bonus and sell him in the summer but we surely cannot risk promotion on this? Unless Enzos been promised a signing on top of sensi that he thinks will kick on immediately
Vardy Party Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 I’d be absolutely fuming if we sold KDH. Our best player, risks promotion, and we’re short in midfield as it is.. KDH for me is a future lestah legend & a lestah lad. If we sold it shows how desperate we are financially. Any UFS lads/lasses reading this.. any chance of a banner for tomorrow’s game? “LCFC don’t you dare”

Because it seems unlikely and out of character. He's playing the best football of his career under Maresca, a guaranteed starter in a team looking likely to be in the PL next year; and i can't see it being a massive pay rise to move to brighton, there doesn't seem to be an obvious indicator that he's looking to bail so close to being back at the top level. 1
Qwerty Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 Surely it’s too late in the transfer window for this to happen ? Even if we got £100 million we wouldn’t have time to replace him . Summer maybe, but not now

I think we overestimate how good we are, we can't play as we do now in the Premier League without reinforcements and have too many out of contract 6

We are no more convincing than Burnley were last season… they are going down..as we would 100% if we fielded the same starting 11 in the PL 5
TheUltimateWinner Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 It’d be classic Leicester to shoot ourselves in the foot by an act of utter stupidity

In this current Premier League season we'd stay up. Agree we need additions but I don't think it needs a massive shake up. Unless we do start to lose players like KDH
teblin Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 I live KDH but I am not 100% convinced he’s a top prem player. Decent but not too. that being said it’s a really bad idea unless we have some good plans to bring someone in. 2

Poznan34 Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 "He's not ready for the Prem" He literally started at the Stadio Olympico in Europa Conf Semi 18 months ago, I'm sure he can handle Crystal Palace, Fulham et al 3
Ricey Posted 26 January 2024 Posted 26 January 2024 Very worrying signs if we sell him, especially for under £30M. Losing him, having already lost Ndidi until April, could risk us not going up automatically. That’s a bigger hit than £30M. Wildly speculating here, but I noticed on Monday that he was moaning and whinging to other players a lot more, often when it was his mistake.

But we are a club that decided the best course of action to avoid a potential FFP points deduction in the Prem (which could have given us some risk of relegation this season) was to just go ahead and get definitely relegated instead. This kind oif dumb decision is exactly the kind of thing senior management might do, given they learnt nothing at all last season and nobody in charge took any fallout for the complete and total failure of all (men's) footballing aspects of the club last season. 1
Popular Post boosmanana Posted 26 January 2024 Popular Post Posted 26 January 2024 I'd drive him there for £30 million on the proviso that we reinvested the full amount in the squad and got adequate replacements. He's not a £30 million player, regardless of how important he is to us. Very one footed and would get found out in this system in the Premier League if we do get promoted, where the pressing is much more intelligent 7
