Fraizer Campbell

[Ric Flair]

They must be offloading Campbell at this rate. Unless they're playing the 'fvck FFP' tactic.

Low wages. Massive parachute payments plus the £80 million they earnt last year. They'll get £5 million for Marshall, £10 million for Caulker and they've saved about £3 million on Bellamy's wages.

[ToeKneeHandCock]

so they've signed Macheda, Le Fondre and Grabban?

And Guerra too!

[Tom's Pasta]

They've definitely got to offload a striker at this rate.

 

Not a bad strike force for a championship side at all that

[RizLCFC]

I think he'll sign for either Sunderland or Hull.

Cardiff's Fraizer Campbell will hold talks with Leicester on Friday. Foxes have bid 800k that triggers release clause. #LCFC #Foxes #CCFC

Saw this on twitter some bloke called soriebah kajue

For £800,000 Campbell is an absolute steal. Could quite easily break into 1st team. Could certainly pitch in with a few goals for us

I'm hearing Leicester have triggered the 800k release clause in Fraizer Campbell's contract. #foxes #LCFC #ccf

Retweeted by some Daily Mirror journo as well in the northwest hope he comes here, shouldn't be too hard to convince him.

[Babylon]

Yeah... he sounds kosha.

[Ric Flair]

For that sort of price he's well worth bringing in, but I maintain we will still need one more genuine quality striker.

Too right

[RizLCFC]

Hope it's true and that the £800k isn't just a plucked out figure from other articles I've read. Campbell and Ulloa with Nugent (maybe), Vardy and Wood is pretty decent!

Think Wood would be surplus to requirements if someone like Ulloa or Cordozo arrives unfortunately.

[Buzzell]

£800k, absolute bargain.

Leicester City have triggered Fraizer Campbell’s release clause at Cardiff with an £800,000 bid for the striker. 

The 26-year-old was the Bluebirds’ top scorer in all competitions last season with nine goals as they were relegated from the Premier League. 

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had been desperate to keep the England international to spearhead their promotion challenge next term.

Marksman: Campbell was top scorer for Cardiff last season with nine goals

 

But those chances appear to be receding after these latest developments. 

Campbell will now be allowed to hold talks with the Foxes on Friday under the terms of the release clause. 

West Brom, who are still without a manager, had been strongly linked with the marksman but a deal has been unable to progress while they continue their search. 

Everton and QPR had also been associated with the former Manchester United youngster as they seek to bolster their respective attacks this summer. 

However, the newly-promoted club appear to have stolen a march on their rivals and Nigel Pearson will hope to convince Campbell to make a switch.

If this is Nugent's replacement then it's a good deal, but if they're all staying then our selection of strikers are much of a muchness. It's essential we have quality, not quantity up front.

[Brooksy]

Good signing for that amount.

[LCCFox96]

£800k is an absolute snip of what Frazier Campbell is worth. Would be a good signing if we can pull that off and will certainly add to the quality in the squad. If he does come in I would still like to see a big target man arriving alongside him. Positive news if the reports are true though.

[ousefox]

Great price but pointless if Nugent stays. Would personally rather have Campbell.

[Happy Fox]

I see him as more competition with Vardy than anything because this guy like Vardy this guy works his bollocks off and we need that if we are to be successful next season.

[Nick]

He's quick but not super Lloyd fast.......

 

What he can do better than any other striker we have currently on our books is score headers.

[Finn Claw II]

He's more proven than anything else we have.  £800k is a snip - get it done!  Vardy, Nugent, Campbell and a new target man and I'd be happy.   Season on loan for Wood methinks though that wouldn't happen until August 31st.

 

Unless he is only driven by money I can see us fending off QPR and looking at who we have already he must fancy his chances of getting regular football

[Stevosevic]

Goodbye Nugent? As I fully expect another striker as well.

[teblin]

Decent player,ok for 800k. Goal scoring record is a little pants though.

[Fox Ulike]

Yes he’s similar to what we have but we don’t have any serious back-up for Nugent or Vardy whatsoever. Neither Nuge or Vards are nailed on certs to excel in the Premier League. They will need some back-up.

 

If we started the season with 6 strikers of Campbell/Vardy/Nugent/Ulloa/Wood/GTF I would be pretty happy with that.

[dpjfox]

Decent hard working striker ex Man Utd good price i imagine is the salary is not excessive could well be a signing
