EnderbyFox Posted 4 August 2022 Share Posted 4 August 2022 A deadline day sale would be a nightmare imo. Whilst it would set us up for the next few years, the thought of an Evans injury leaving us with Soyuncu, Amarety and Verstergaard until January gives me palpitations 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets say we sell him for 80m this season, 45m profit, we have to give his form club 9m. If it expires next season we would get the whole 45m profit rather than losing 9m. Not saying it does expire, but its possible. Edited 4 August 2022 by coolhandfox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc sheff Posted 4 August 2022 Share Posted 4 August 2022 21 minutes ago, StriderHiryu said: I think he might go on deadline day too. Some sources saying 80m is the price, which incredibly would mean the two highest price defenders of all time would have been sold by Leicester! Weirdly I am OK about this whole situation. IF we sell him it will be for a monster amount and whilst it would affect this season, that money could be reinvested into the team in the future. Fofana like Tielemans, Kante, Mahrez, etc was always going to leave. He's a top player who would be worth that money and it's a case of when not if. My exact thoughts, it weirdly excites me what next we can do with the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media didn't help us with mahrez, pundits saying look what he's done for our club, blah blah blah, but with fofana, he owes the club, for giving him a new contract following paying him for a year out. Selling fofana this window can only do the club harm, so huge compensation can only make up for it really 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's using them as much as they're using their reach. Probably best we sell in January. I wouldn't weaken now but I wouldn't keep him around if he's playing the same games as before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it’s the “initial contract” and the new deal supersedes that, so has been wiped out already? I have no idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on a 5 year contract, he can't afford to sulk, like the kane and levy situation, when the windows closed and he's still a leicester player, he'll realise he needs to get his head down and play out of his skin to get the same opportunities next season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jv1 Posted 4 August 2022 Share Posted 4 August 2022 The press have properly lost the plot on this and so have Newcastle and Chelsea - 70m for fofana and 40m for Maddison - those 2nd bids don’t even get within 20m of each asking price - really really bizarre and no way we sell for that money - it’s not even like they are bids to be considered 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
