Joe. Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 Schmeichel doesn't want to come to us because he wants to be in the Premier League. His whole plan was to see out his contract at Leeds for a top division side to take a gamble on him on a free next season, but they've put a spanner in his works now by letting him go this summer. It's nothing personal I don't think, he just genuinely sees himself higher than this by the sounds of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdb Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 He'd not be no.1 at any Prem club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniffer-Clarke Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 I would be surprised if any premier club came in for him at the moment,way-way- short of his old man possibly his old mans success as gone to his head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nothing personal I don't think, he just genuinely sees himself higher than this by the sounds of things. That's how I see it Plus, Leeds finished above us last year and they're a bigger club than us, with his higher opinion of himself (that's my opinion, not fact), he probably sees this as a backward move. On top of this, as a free agent he would presumably of been able to command a bigger signing fee, or something too Just shows the fine art of contract negotiation is pretty complicated, I can imagine signings with Prem ambition want release clauses should we fall short again, want higher money to play in this division to compensate for the lack of exposure and all other sorts of stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A season with us and he will be in the prem the season after next anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleronnie Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 I agree I'd be surprised if Prem teams were interested. He's been offered a great opportunity at Leicester, a club with strong ambitions, a world class manager and the money that would allow him to double his current wages, pretty good move I would of thought.

Surely it would be the perfect move for him? If he thinks he can be no1 get better wages than what we would offer and have a better chance of being in the prem then i would like to know where...

Callabinho Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 We don't know whats happening in truth, maybe we are considering all of our options before we agree on a deal, I imagine he will be with us by next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Year Of The Fox Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 MPH- west ham perhaps? I'm not buying into this 'we are the option for him' malarkey. No-one knows what wage we could offer either. Its all speculation and getting boring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City saw a seven-figure offer for Schmeichel accepted this week, leading to statements from United confirming that Schmeichel would be replaced as their first-choice keeper this summer, and Leeds are looking to see the transfer tied up before their squad report back to Thorp Arch for pre-season training in four days’ time. Schmeichel and Leicester are considering their positions over the weekend, but sources in the Midlands continue to indicate that he is one of a number of keepers who City have been monitoring. Meanwhile, former United midfielder Neil Kilkenny has signed a three-year contract with Championship rivals Bristol City after rejecting a new deal at Leeds. “We’re delighted he has agreed to join us as we’ve been following him for a little while,” said City boss Keith Millen of his free transfer capture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accessory Posted 25 June 2011 Share Posted 25 June 2011 A club source says that Sven's only just returned from a holiday in the Caribbean (which the tabloids will be running details on in coming days.. ) I guess the manager will already have been in talks with Kasper and the outcome of the talks will become apparent within the week.

He's been in Portugal and I had heard he was going straight out to Sweden for a few days before pre season starts. I doubt Sven, or any other manager, actually has much to say when it comes to 'talks' other than a quick phone call to say hi and come and play for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
