Richard Kone from Wycombe Wanderers I really like prospect of him. 18 goals in League One is very impressive in first full season there (contracted until 2026). Here's structure of a deal we could do with them:

 

Upfront Fee: £6–6.5 million

  • Purpose: Increases Wycombe's short-term liquidity and reflects Kone’s rapid rise.

  • Rationale: Signals serious intent while keeping financial risk controlled for Leicester.

Performance-Based Add-Ons: £1.5–2 million

  • Unlockable by Kone’s success at Leicester:

  • +£500k after 15 first-team appearances.

  • +£500k if Leicester achieve promotion to Premier League within 2 years.

  • +£500k if Kone scores 10 goals in a single season.

  • +£500k if he earns a senior international call-up (optional but motivational).

Sell-On Clause: 15–20% of Future Profit

  • Mechanism: If Leicester sell Kone for £25M in future, Wycombe gets 15–20% of profit above original fee (i.e. profit = £25M - £6.5M = £18.5M → ~£2.8–3.7M).

  • Why it matters: For a League One club, long-term upside is often as valuable as cash now.

Negotiation Tactics

  • Emphasize the platform: Frame Leicester as a “next-level development club” for Kone—a model Wycombe can proudly cite for future talents.

  • Show Vardy succession plan: Outline the clear path Kone has into first-team relevance.

  • Offer friendly terms: Consider paying the upfront portion in 2–3 instalments to smooth Wycombe’s cash flow and incentivize agreement.

  • Add PR value: Suggest joint press release to celebrate Wycombe's role in developing a future Premier League striker.

The structure without AI - Leicester City has added to its forward ranks after a deal was agreed with Wycombe Wanderers for the transfer of Richard Kone for an undisclosed fee.

Charlie Kelman would be worth it , he’s on loan at Leyton Orient from QPR and has scored 25 goals this season in League One/ and cup competitions, and I imagine , QPR need the money so anything like £5-7m would be worth it imo.

 

He’s only 23 so is yet to hit his prime.

I saw him at burton a few weeks ago, if I’m honest I didn’t anyone for Leyton Orient really stood out.

When added up, that total suggested package by ChatGPT seems excessive if Wycombe stay down, given he has 1 year left on his contract.

Franculino Djú from Midjtylland.

 

20 years old, blistering pace, loves to play off the shoulder and a good finisher.

 

Raw and unpolished but great potential.

Sargent would be a good fit in terms of playing style but I can't see us paying what Norwich would demand. Injury history also a concern.
