Popular Post chris2208 Posted 30 May 2024 Popular Post Posted 30 May 2024 (edited) Would definitely sign him! Natural goalscorer, fast and also good in the air. https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leicester-city-go-28-million-9313938 Edited 31 August 2024 by Finnegan 5
-sodapop Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Doubt he'd come here with everything hanging over the club atm, and doubt we could even afford him if he would. Still, he'd probably be our starting striker if he did come and I wouldn't be opposed.
HowardsBulletHeader Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 A sweetener for Mourinho as the next manager? 😉 1

Popular Post dooflip Posted 30 May 2024 Popular Post Posted 30 May 2024 Far too expensive, massive wages, no sell on value. Next!… 5
Langston Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Hmmm, be on decent cash, would cost a fair bit and coming off both an average, then a pretty crap season. I get that there's a player in there but it doesn't strike me as brilliant business, this one. 2
brownboy93 Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 He's coming back from a massive knee injury.. bit risky for the price
LFEFox23 Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Unrealistic, High wages and I would expect he wants European football not a relegation battle.
South Shire Fox Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Loan him with an option to buy like these twats do to us 3
Fox92 Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Never been a fan. Okay in the Championship, aside from one good return in the PL (probably the Covid hit season) and one good season with Roma. 2

MPH Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 (edited) I will also add that this is not a ‘ Tippy tappy” kind of footballer. I can only imagine we have an idea of what direction we are going in. The alternative is that we have people in charge that haven’t got a scooby at what they are doing…. There can be no inbetween if we are targeting this kind of player.. Edited 30 May 2024 by MPH
LVFox Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Would have to be a loan with option, and under those circumstances he likely receives better options than us.

I don't think one dodgy rumour, that may not even be true, means we're going in a different direction. 2
Ric Flair Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 If he was transferring from England to another country based on the last year or two he's had then it would be a loan with an option or a massively reduced fee. If we entertain anything different to that we're silly. 3
Popular Post Finnegan Posted 30 May 2024 Popular Post Posted 30 May 2024 (edited) Hell no, he's ****ing terrible. He had literally one purple patch season in Serie A and has been useless ever since. He scored one league goal this year, he scored 8 league goals the year before. I'm not even ****ing bothering trying to explain this to FoxesTalk but he is statistically, objectively, worse than Patson Daka. In his last three seasons at Roma he's managed 0.42 goals a game and 0.54 G+A/90 combined. His average career, top flight goals in a season is 9 and he's had the luxury of playing for Roma and Chelsea. He's absolutely not "a natural goal scorer". He's literally a meme in Italy.

Stadt Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 126 goals in 236 career starts. If his injuries haven't ****ed him and he's not too expensive he'd be a strong signing. Big ifs though

Lesta2014 Posted 30 May 2024 Posted 30 May 2024 Gotta be looking at a loan with maybe option to buy if we stay up. 2 good scoring years in prem and we could get decent fee still as he will only be 29 then?!
