If it means future points deductions, who the **** cares at this point. This whole attempt to stay within the lines started with finishing 8th, selling Fofana for £70m and signing ****ing Faes and Smithies to compensate for losing Kasper. It's without a doubt more beneficial to overspend than miserably fail and barely pass to comply. £5m for James is a ****ing bargain, you gather up all your loose change and make him play, **** a loan. Luton doubled and spent £2.5m and didn't exactly rake it in. We'll have absolute shit loads gone this summer and that's without considering BEK, and Faes. If we don't get James it'll be because Jon Rudkin ****ed it up in the summer. No they won't. Top already thinks the squad as it is should/would be good enough for Premier League promotion. There's no way they think we need anyone to get us out of League 1. He will think we'll be winning every game. I'd be super surprised if there are any significant incoming transfers before the season starts, and by the time we land in League 1 with a bump and figure out it isn't as easy as we thought, the transfer window will close. Nope, Top and Rudkin are actually looking forward to a quiet, relaxing summer break. 5
Sting Posted 21 April Posted 21 April I think we will find our own level maybe after another relegation. But after that, I see an upturn in the next 3-4 seasons, as a upper mid table division 2 team, able to be a self sustainable club bringing through our own players from the reserve and youth teams who will be able to bridge the gap from reserve to first team in division 2 well and able to hold there own maybe even shine. We should then be able to to dip into the transfer market in a limited and very modest way and try and make a push for Division 1. That's my forecast for Leicester city over the next 4 seasons. 1

No upturn will happen until we have new ownership. It's really that simple. As long as King Power stay it'll be more of the same because they have zero standards or ability and continue to promote Rudkin. As soon as they leave, Rudkin retires and then we can start the long process of repairing the damage that Awaiyatt has done. 1

They think that automatically playing at a lower level means we'll just stroll it. Any good players we get through the academy will need to be sold to continually offset the poor signings we'll continue to make. 5

We ****ed up by not signing him in January. There is ABSOLUTELY 0% chance he signs this summer. If we had stayed up, maybe. But he will end up at either a top end Champ team like Wolves, or a lower end Premier League team this summer. He'll have a choice to join us in League 1 or go straight in at another team at a higher level. Spoiler: he won't choose league one.
Muzzy_no7 Posted 29 April Posted 29 April Is it in any way plausible that we permanently sign him and immediately sell him for a quick profit? Or have we no chance due to not meeting conditions? Leeds are looking at him. 1

If you were his agent would you be allowing Leicester to flip him and earn a few million or would you be making sure you and your client got that ?? None of us know the details of any deal - could even be possible that we’ve been weighed in to allow our option to drop away rather than having a messy situation play out. 1

Hopefully he’s pre agreed to terms and there’s nothing he can do about it, the club will need the potential financial boost. perhaps somehow will have an idea if this kind of thing is possible or we still need him to sign stuff? or if top does inject some funds we could perhaps keep him, although that is the most doubtful option of the lot
Edingleyfox Posted 29 April Posted 29 April (edited) You would hope there is a chance that Jordan could accept a contract as long as there is some sort of release clause put in place so he could leave in January if there is no upturn leaving the club a handy profit without being too greedy. The longer the club is in limbo regarding a new manager and sales/acquisitions or the usual complacency the less likely I think this will happen. Edited 29 April by Edingleyfox

Fox 4 Life Posted 29 April Posted 29 April We have a £5m buy option but he has the final say. There is 0% chance he agrees to play in L1 so let's just move on. Leeds will probably play Rennes £20m. He could have become a legend here and at an absolute steal of a price, but of course we can't even stay in the ****ing division.

SecretPro Posted 30 April Posted 30 April As if JJ is going to stay People really are delusional about where we are as a club. 2
teblin Posted 30 April Posted 30 April Think before xmas he had every intention to stay but not in League 1.

He's clearly not going to play in League One. But there seems to be some debate over whether the terms of our option to buy would enable us to buy him and immediately sell him to another club at a profit. I have no idea whether this is possible or not, but if it is we should be all over it. 6

It would surprise me to have such a clause but then again now I know how players seem to have relegation clauses in the most unlikely of circumstances then it must be true 1
Kinowe Soorie Posted 2 May Posted 2 May It’d be great if we could somehow sign him, then loan him out for hopefully just a season, whilst we are in League One.
