cityfanlee23 Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 Mentioned by TJB-Fox originally, It's just a twitter "rumor" right now, Or not even a rumor, but interesting to day the least... A few of us lads have tweeted him things like "Are you signing for leicester in january" To which he retweets them.. I even threw in a "Mahrez is a leicester fan chant" To which he retweeted, then a "Football agent" Tweeted TJB-Fox claiming he could be coming to leicester.. Not wanting to start rumors but it is interesting, not claiming to be ITK, But it seems odd that a professional footballer would be retweeting these rumors if untrue (Wouldnt look good for him at Havre?) Make your own minds up... Skip to 2.40 for his goal shite defending but good finish. ~Here are the twitter links. https://twitter.com/Mahrez22 https://twitter.com/YAYSteveM/status/415087355260043264 https://twitter.com/tom_bakewell/status/414922003184091136 As Kentfoxsteve mentioned... could we have 2 slick frenchman in the squad?

Finnaldo Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 Another right wing Franco-North African in our squad? That would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great players like to be linked to the club. Especially in foreign leagues. I'd imagine he's drawn parallels between himself and Knockaert. However we'll have to see how (or if) Walshy and his scout network view him. So far all we have is a French Wikipedia page, a few retweets and a 7 minute video from ONE game. Not really conclusive evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shearfox Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 Never heard of him but then I never knew Knockaert either so if he can be as good as him then get him in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 He is probably thankful of the attention, and had to Google where Leicester is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilo Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 In fairness, we do need another winger or two and he does look quick. That being said, he might just be too similar to Knockaert when we need something a bit different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really conclusive evidence. Isn't he out of contract at the end of the season (someone ask him on twitter :L) If yes, then he probably can disregard the clubs intrests. Playing for a ligue 2 side with championship level interest is likely to turn his head. I think if it is true we must have, by now, learnt to trust Walsh's scouting. We didn't have much more information on knockaert when he signed. Though I guess your right to have reservations tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Fox Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 19 appearances , 5 goals and 4 assists in French second division not too shabby for a winger could be a bargain as we saw with Knockaert, and other gems at that level. Here is hoping he is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCCFox96 Posted 23 December 2013 Share Posted 23 December 2013 Maybe this is the start of knocky dropping into the middle? This lad wide? Thats a good shout...very interesting to see that. Although hope this guy tracks back better than knockaert did when he signed. Can you imagine with both playing. Tbf knockaerts defensive work has improved.
