I suspect something else is the issue (price is higher than reported OR Youri isn't convinced by Arsenal but other teams are waiting to see before coming in with interest so as to not drive the price up). That said, if they are the only interested club and they do sit back, our window is going to be a nightmare if we're relying on sales to make signings. Its not the fee , its the contract and as Youri is on £5 million a year with us , he will be looking for £8 million with another club . He will be after a five year contract as well. That is a big commitment for any buyer to make. However if they wait a year the lack of fee will make that more acceptable. A lot can change in a year though and Youri may decide to sign a shorter extension with us if we up his salary. That would probably make him our top earner and that could disrupt other players. That is what happens at the top end of club football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also suspect Youri isnt that convinced by Arsenal either hence the ‘cooling’ of interest. For someone whose wish it has been to play UCL football for years, the prospect of joining Arsenal does seem rather scary. Liverpool and Man City will just run away at the top again, Spurs have sadly done some great business. That 4th spot will be up for grabs this season I'd imagine, Chelsea look a mess, Arsenal's recruitment looks to be mediocre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have thought he'd be looking for a 4 year contract (similar to the one he signed with us) then he can easily move again and thus have two large moves before he retires. imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he means that it will inhibit us signing any more players at the top of their game as we can't afford it. Especially as we were meant to reduce our wage bill going forward. To have them as guaranteed top earners means others will have to miss out and possibly can't keep our best players like youri. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Leicester reckon he has got to do another couple of months as Southampton won't let him leave yet. You'd think they'd put him on gardening leave. He could definitely kick start his Leicester career off by buying back Vestergaard and Bertrand while he's still at Southampton. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzFOX Posted 21 June 2022 Share Posted 21 June 2022 He ain’t going anywhere Is he? nobody has come in for him just a load of rumours. Arses have come closest in interest but no offers to back it up. ol youre must be feeling pretty humbled at the moment. All the drama and no action! what a waste of time if has been. He needs to get his head down and be ready to bring his A game this season in time for the World Cup. Than he can see who comes in for him in January.

I'd love an answer pronto, just so the club can get a handle on direction and plans on the go. Youri probably is pivotal in our future whether he goes or stays but, in all fairness, that isn't his biggest concern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than he can see who comes in for him in January. ...at this moment, I can see he has the option of staying here, going off to sunnier climes, playing for an upper mid-table team, or signing for Newcastle!!! They will be the most likely scenarios where he will have the opportunity for guaranteed game time because I believe for him, that is paramount.

Based on amartey being picked ahead of soy at the end of the season, you’d have to presume he’s off. He’d hopefully recoup about £20m i reckon? I think it makes sense to sell Kel as well, i don’t see how we can keep 3 top strikers happy when playing once a week. He’d also make £20m I reckon. Along with clearing lots of the dead wood I think we could make £60m ish in sales this summer which we can hopefully sign 4 good players for.
