See the two blokes wearing Fez's in SK4 yesterday? They had some sort of red flag which didn't appear to be Liverpool. BEK fans?

I thought that was Tommy Cooper..

He has shown he has more than enough ability if playing with decent quality, think he will end up at a mid to upper mid level club, could see teams like West Ham, Palace, Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth being interested as he will still have future sell on potential. 
 

I also wouldn’t be shocked if teams like Spurs, Man Utd and Arsenal have a nibble as would be a very good squad/rotational option for clubs who potentially will be in Europe next season.

BEK likely off according to Sacha Tavolieri

 

https://www.sky-sport.ch/fr/articles/xabi-alonso-diogo-costa-sacha-boey-voici-les-infos-transferts-de-la-semaine/

 

Boubakary Soumaré to leave Leicester City!

Following the announced and official departure of Jamie Vardy, and the more than likely departures of Bilal El Khannouss and Wout Faes, the 26-year-old French midfielder will also be saying goodbye to the Foxes at the end of the season. In agreement with the English club's management, which is short on cash and intends to free itself from the group's largest salaries, Boubakary Soumaré is looking for a new adventure after four seasons at Leicester City.

 

At 26, Boubakary Soumaré must be questioning the career choice that is presented to him... Thanks to his status as a sure bet and his twenty-six matches played out of a possible thirty-three, the native of Noisy-le-Sec enjoys an interesting rating on the European market, where his profile is appreciated by several French clubs such as AS Monaco. In England, his performances have not gone unnoticed and it is said that a newly promoted team could also benefit from a player whose Premier League experience could be beneficial to the team.

Furthermore, the player has also opened the door to an exotic challenge in the Gulf countries, particularly in Saudi Arabia, where his profile appeals to the Ministry of Sports, which is considering making him a tempting offer if a non-EU spot becomes available in one of the Saudi Pro League clubs. Other clubs from the Gulf countries, such as Qatar, have also shown interest.

With one year left on his contract, the Foxes could demand a transfer fee of around €10 million to free Soumaré, but it is said that a lower-cost arrival has been negotiated in the event of relegation, now a given, to the Championship, where Leicester City will no longer be able to support his salary in next season's budget. To be continued...

Reminds me of Playoff Final 96. Got off the bus and two blokes in Fez's & curled toe shoes with a Turkish flag for Muzzy. Halcyon days when football fans were witty and took the piss out of themselves.

Bilal El Khannouss is not that good.

 

technical ability he is okay but he cannot compete at this level. would love to be proved wrong. same goes for our whole squad - they're all too small and puny lightweight players. Wolves players on Saturday looked huge compared to them.

Agree that he's not good enough for the Prem. 

 

I think a season in the Champ like KDH and he'll smash it and would be necessary in his development. Could even get some money for him.

He has an aura that makes it seem like he’s doing more than he is.  Some players are just like that. 
 

He’s got talent I don’t doubt that but I’m not sure how effective he actually is. When you compare him to early season Facundo, it’s not even close.  He seems to me that he’s one of those #10s that actually doesn’t get great numbers. 
 

I feel that even if you put him in man city, whilst his pretty football would make him look great, he still wouldn’t be getting that many goal contributions. 
 

His distribution to me is just not consistent enough and his free kicks and corners really showcase that. 7 woeful before 1 decent ball. 
 

However, he hasn’t been working with anything. So maybe he’s a different player with a firing striker and fatawu and Stephy.

ELK is a good player with the potential to be a great player but for me he’s not done enough to earn a move to any prem club. I personally think he’ll be with us next season - anyone splashing out the £25m- £35m we’d expect would be taking a risk based on this season.

We've stopped functioning as a team, picking through the bones of individuals is barley worth it because two shit managers have masked any individual ability.

Him, Mav, Fatawu and a competent striker would be a very good Championship forward line

Let's be honest, would probably be the best front 4 the division has ever seen.

Bilal is one of our harder working and skilful players that hasn’t been able to perform as you would expect due to the set up. 

 

The main problem is the dross that he has around him. He has to drop deep as Ndidi and Soumare are useless, so he’s picking the ball up, like Facundo, and then having to do everything with only Vardy or Daka in front.

Intrigued what the apparent release clause is. You'd imagine we'd want a profit at least

Judging by what the article said about Soumare, I would say they know nothing and AI will not kill journalism for a few more years.
