Just read in The Athletic that he'll be free this summer. He'd be such a good signing if we can get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A proper random one but it did lead to a lot of chat that he moved to Lyon and at the same time agreed a premier league move for the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick look suggests his contract is up next summer, but should be attainable for a very low price. This is the one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a big fan of the 2 players they recommended for centre back and centre mid A centre back who isn't the best in the air (just what we need with our issues), and a centre mid that for a supposed 6/8 who comes out nowhere near Wilf, KDH, or even Bouba... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have lost out on Ebiowei, it would be great to make this work, but I do not believe it will happen, too late in the day now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just read in The Athletic that he'll be free this summer. He'd be such a good signing if we can get him. Lyon are in a bit of a shit state having not qualified for Europe, I think he's fair game. There's a bit of confusion about whether foreign players with only a year left on their contracts can have them torn up given the situation won't be sorted in Ukraine by the start of the season, but Tete has 18 months left still so really not sure. I suspect he'd not cost more than £20m though which would be a fantastic price. He's my sign at all costs RW, he would be very very good here. Closely followed by Madueke as a 2nd choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree, was really disappointed in that article. Felt like they barely did the research. Weird choice of CB just after mentioning we had set pieces issues, then they don't include Tielemans in a look at our midfield (presuming he's off, I guess), but suggest no option to replace him? Instead they suggest a player they don't even seem sure about, and who by their own admission doesn't have any creative qualities! Not the usual standard I'd expect from Tifo.

FoxesCJ30 Posted 28 June 2022 Share Posted 28 June 2022 There is discussed talk on Hojberg available for transfer from spurs. Whenever I've seen him he offers a bit more steel, tough in the tackle and shows a fair bit of ball playing in his locker. Lastly, he seems personally someone who'd fit in a Rodgers team with him being comfortable maintaining and retrieving possession. Only if Tielemens left but I see the value he'd offer, potentially as someone to support KDH if he stepped up to fill that Tielemens shaped hole. What is everyone's thoughts on Hojberg?
