It was reported a couple of hours before news of our bid broke that Leicester wanted to offer him a new deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 You can’t sit at leciester and think “aye we’re going to go up from here - there’s more to this project” and no offense to them either but in terms of a project, we’re dead set in gate crashing that top 6 where Leicester (while incredible what they have and continue to do) know their model depends on recycling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Generally speaking they do get top whack when they sell... Kante £35 million Drinkwater £35 million Mahrez £60 million Maguire £80 million Chilwell £45 million Only Kante went cheap really and I have no idea what his contract situation looked like.

He had a release clause in I think, since then they have stopped putting them in their players contracts. Think that’s why you are seeing the likes of Maddison and Tielemans run down their deals.

The Kante sale was before the Neymar transfer to PSG, which is the transfer that has since massively inflated player prices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kante’s £35m was a decent fee at the time- the same window Mane, Sane, and David Luiz moved for similar amounts (and Sissoko to Spurs). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is one of those players that has perhaps been consistent for ao many seasons now (I'm terms of goals/assists/performances) that it'll take a move away for him to get into the next level ie. England and regular Champions League football. In regards to him or Paqueta it is a difficult decsion that ultimately I'm pleased I don't have to make because they both have advantages over the other in certain areas.

McCormick Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) Gents, don’t do this to yourselves. We’re not getting Maddison. And no, I’m not watching his YouTube compilations right this second and assessing whether or not he has the work-rate to play in an Eddie Howe midfield 3 or if he should be deployed on the rw, tucking in.

Disco Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Wonder if the old Christmas tree may be afoot if he does join. Ed-Tel rustling up memories of times gone by. Wilson with Maddison and Hateboy free rolling off him a bit like we had under Rafa with Perez and Miguelito. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
