topharry123 Posted 29 October 2012 Share Posted 29 October 2012 Hey, Wondered if anyone can help me with somthing. I have a bet on with a friend where we both pick 100 things that will happen in football during the 2012 season. One of them was most expensive Leicester player to be signed in the summer of 2012. I picked Vardy and my friend picked Knockaert before they both signed, but it's tough to find which one cost the most. I can find that Vardy was probs about a mil, but Kocky I can't find anything for. Anyone have a good accurate (ish) idea of how much each of them cost us? Thanks !!

Dan LCFC Posted 29 October 2012 Share Posted 29 October 2012 To the best I know.. Vardy was £750k rising to £1.7mil based on promotion/goals. Knockaert according to a French media woman was worth 3-4million euros which Montpellier refused to pay, making it £2.4mil-£3.2mil. Knockaert was more expensive.

scottthefox Posted 29 October 2012 Share Posted 29 October 2012 2.6 sticks in my mind for Knocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topharry123 Posted 29 October 2012 Author Share Posted 29 October 2012 How did you know Vardy and Knockaert were coming before they had even signed? I picked Vardy a while back as my guess that we would sign him based on rumors, but my friend only picked Knocky after he had basically signed so that was an extremely educated guess !! From what I can tell, looks like i've lost this one!! Thanks for the responses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpTheLeagueFox Posted 29 October 2012 Share Posted 29 October 2012 I would be staggered if we paid more than £1.5m for Knocky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPH Posted 30 October 2012 Share Posted 30 October 2012 It was never disclosed how much we actually paid for knocky. there have been several 'guesses' as it is in this thread.... My guess would be that the final fee for him might well be closer to some of the monied mentioned, after add ons for various things.. Best way to find out is to buy FM 2013!

UpTheLeagueFox Posted 30 October 2012 Share Posted 30 October 2012 You might want to find a chair to sit on then. There might be add ons of course but remember we were buying from a French second division club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 30 October 2012 Share Posted 30 October 2012 There might be add ons of course but remember we were buying from a French second division club True but he had already represented France at U/21 and U/20 level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH Posted 30 October 2012 Share Posted 30 October 2012 True but he had already represented France at U/21 and U/20 level. I think, in true mandaric style.... an agent somewhere has receieved a hefty fee for us to get him.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
