It's a tricky one. I'd bin Bertrand Would not surprise me if Evans is going to be longer than April, by the time he is even back ready to start playing matches the season will already probably be done Bertrand is a knee issue as well isn't it? If he needs an OP that is his season probably done Bin off Jakupovic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Rodgers confirmed we looked at him last January as well but Inters demands were too high (full wages + a loan big fee). Can't see who we'd move out from the squad to bring him or anyone else in on top of the defender we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t surprise me if Bertrand gets binned too. Im going to call it now, Eriksen in on a pay as you play until the end of the season, and Phil Jones on loan.

FoxesWalk Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 Would like him to come here, but I think he’ll go to Spurs, Conte on record saying the door is always open for Eriksen at spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sankey93 Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 If we have the chance to sign Erisken it’s a no brainer! Before his horrible situation he was on top form once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudio Fannieri Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 I think this is a no brainier for me, would provide great cover for both Madders and Youri as we enter a busy period of fixtures, we will need that flexibility to keep players fresh and fit. I agree Jakupovic ideal to drop from squad as Stolycryk has been providing cover for bench and means we can create an additional spot in the 25 man squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxfan92 Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 Depends if things have changed in light of Youri extending his contract looking less and less likely (lets be honest its not looked like he'll resign for a long time now, but with only 18 months left we'll need more cover in midfield). Agree with those who say the one free slot should go to a centre back in view of our centre back crisis, however if JJ and Fofana aren't too far away and Amartey is back very soon we might be okay there soon enough. Ndidi can fill in when he comes back in a couple of weeks time, Soyuncu should hopefully be back, and worst case scenario, Timmy and Hamza (as seem recently)can fill in at the back. I think he'll do well wherever he ends up (assuming he comes to the Premier League), but the concern with Eriksen will always be his heart. Just seems like a very Leicester thing to do to sign a player then find he is forced to retire a few games in over heath issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously think he would be difficult to insure ... once you have a cardiac arrest, you are forever a heart patient. I know that sports medicine has improved immensely over the past 20 years, but there is a reason Serie A won't let him play: It is risky for people with serious heart conditions to play elite level sports, even if you can find a Dr. Spaceman to sign the required forms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrispinLA in Texas Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 How much will we pay him? Can't see him getting over 40k aweek here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFox99 Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 But on a real, there's no point in bringing in Eriksen. Don't get me wrong, he's one of my absolute favourite players but there's just a massive risk with him for one, not to mention that a player like him just isn't a priority right now. What would we even do with him? We can't play him as an 8, he's shown at Inter that it doesn't work, we can't really play him as a 10 as long as Madders is fit and in form. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babylon Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 2 hours ago, turlo said: Yes we only have 1 space left, which was a result of Benkovic leaving. Rodgers has said the priority is bringing in a CB, so we'd need to move another registered player out to bring Eriksen in. Jakupovic can go out and we use a youth teamer as third reserve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adejo92 Posted 16 January 2022 Share Posted 16 January 2022 I'd actually quite like to spend big money on the best CB we can realistically get rather than someone to fill the void. Evans career is on borrowed time, the amount of injuries he's getting now, I'd say he's going to hang his boots up. Probably the end of this season or the next. I don't think Soyunchu is particularly brilliant and no one knows how Fofana will recover. Vestergaard...well... Ideally a new CB & Fofana long term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
