Wikipedia says hes a leicester player and even the premier leauge offical website says he is. They wouldnt do that unless they were 100 percent sure

The article confirmed him as a Leicester player, he just hasnt been announced 

[DesertFox]

This shouldn't be too difficult to figure out, surely? He's currently at home in Ghana because he had international duty, so has more time off than those who are already back in preseason. He'll be back next week. It doesn't make any sense to fly him back to Leicester during his holiday, just for a photo shoot.

Last week he posted a tiktok video of himself in a supermarket in Nottingham, so he doesn’t appear to be in Ghana.

and the recent photo of him getting out the car at the KP (although I thought that was strange considering most of the announcement vids are done at Seagrave!)

One is clean, safe and beautiful with well bred, friendly and welcoming people. The other is Nottingham.

To be announced Monday I think. 

Lol, any more guesses from anyone cause no-one actually knows?

This would genuinely not surprise me. No update all summer and we find out when he's named in the team

I know in the past they’ve completed the legal documentation at KP followed by a tour. Not sure if that’s still the case since Seagrave has been built.

Would he need a tour of the KP given that he's already played there for a whole season?

No obviously not  just saying what I know the process used to be in the past for new signings so he May have been at KP for the paperwork element? Weird if so now that they have Seagrave.

[Nolucklcfc]

Clearly an issue of some sort

I think the photo of him getting out of a car at the KP is an old one and was not of him turning up to sign his contract. However, judging from his social media posts he IS in the UK. So either he has signed and the club hasn't bothered to announce it or there has been some kind of hold-up. I'm pretty sure if it was done the club would have announced it, which means there has likely been a hold-up. Hopefully it's not a serious one.

There's a bit of hysteria in here so why not add some more baseless speculation as fuel to the fire:

 

What if the signing is already done but Maresca loves him so much we're already negotiating his sale to Chelsea?

 

Or even a different club has shown an interest and we're taking to them?

Wouldn’t shock me at all.

When are the players who have been on international duties, due back to meet up with the squad?

I'd imagine, if Fatawu isn't back in line with those guy's time scale, we have a reason to suspect something is wrong

He'll be doing the announcement video in Evian then as that's where everyone else ;D
