I like how we’re so confident our initial £15 million bid will get rejected, we’ve added an immediate second bid of £20 million alongside it.

 

That’s masterful, mind**** style negotiation.

He’s 20

Until he appears in a horrendous, hastily put-together LCFC reveal video wearing that god-awful third kit, I refuse to believe this is happening. Even then I'll be sceptical.

This guy was recommended by quite a few people on here. I think he’s a great signing, though don’t think he’ll necessarily hit the ground running. But he’s the type that would go for 2-3x what we paid for him in a few seasons. Very impressed whenever I’ve seen him. 

[niyaminski]

Him - 20

Buenanotte - 20

Alves - 19

 

I know Buenanottes only on loan, but we have 3 players who play in the same position. Same age.

 

One of them is a Leicester fan. Naturally I’d want him to be the successor to Maddison, make a name for himself and become our star man…

For those wondering, it's pronounced Bilal El Khannouss

Not sure that's particularly relevant given that he's already made 77 appearances for Genk (4 goals) and whilst it sounds like he has plenty of other positive attributes we desperately need attacking players who can put the ball in the back of the net.  If he's the talent he appears to be then great bring him in but we still need at least 2 additional proven goalscorers in my opinion.

I have never heard of him. But judging by the reaction of a few on here he is exciting and a must have.
 

Hate to spoil the party but this season more than ever, I simply don’t trust it will happen until I see it officially announced. 😂 think I have PTSD. 

[beastfootballx]

IS it confirmed?

[CrispinLA in Texas]

He's signed 

[honeybradger]

Considering what's happened so far this summer I'm not getting my Hope's up until he's got an announcement video.

 

Knowing Rudkin this is a smokescreen for the return of Jeffry Schlupp.

4 Goals in 77 games is not a great return, Can he step up to the Premierleague or not. On some of our recent signings it's questionable.

[Dahnsouff]

We have agreed with the player, but not with the club. Sorry, but where has all the optimism come from?

Me too. 

 

But of the 3 you mentioned Alves has much less experience. Mostly due to his injuries. He might be just as good as the other two but he hasn't yet done anything to prove it. He needs to play every week for at least a season. If we have two young players in front of him in the pecking order, then we need to send him out on loan.

Creator rather than a goalscorer, which we do also really need

Seeing as we've been turned down by players numerous times this summer it sounds like a great plan.

Hey, I am all for it, it just seems out of character for here.

We're all very tired and confused. On the plus side we should have a great team in 2 to 3 years with all these good young players we're signing.

The alternative is getting excited about Ayew. 

 

[ramboacdc]

Looks interesting. Good number 10 for sure. Just go to hope there is someone on the end of all his through balls.
