Wymsey Posted 23 October 2022 Share Posted 23 October 2022 He knows, as others are currently performing well in his position, it's going to take Rodgers some convincing to turn his opinion favourably towards him (and Vestergaard). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Inter being in for him after the rumours during the summer Skriniar only has 6 months left as well and I expect PSG will go back in for him in January rather than wait for him to join on a free in the summer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If him and Perez go in January, we could be looking much stronger 8f we sign a cb and a rw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst they are in the CL though we will struggle to land him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Arriba Los Zorros Posted 25 October 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 25 October 2022 I just have this feeling that Soyuncu is going to go somewhere, do really well and end up being close to world class at a decent CL club (like a Dortmund, Sporting etc etc). And we'll all look back and say he was one that got away. He's got tonnes of potential. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody would deny that he was poor last season but showed signs of turning the corner. Worst bit is, it's another £30m-50m gone down the toilet when he goes on a free or for a couple of quid. Same with Youri. Give massive contracts to crap players but don't actually get your best assets on new deals. Not surprising we're in this state when the club is being run like this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how or why we went wrong, but in a very short space of time we've gone from being a club broadly admired for overachieving and maximising our resources to another Everton / Villa type who should be doing a lot better than we are....

It just shows how fragile things can be for a club of our size, a couple of bad transfer windows, key players getting old and things can soon go very wrong. We’re now in the pack of about 12-13 clubs who will be battling to stay up. Get through the season and hopefully rebuild next summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that might change this is because his wages are very modest and the difference between what a club will offer him on a free or what they'd offer him to get him in January if desperate enough for a modest fee will be largely the same.

A contract has been on the table for Youri for a long time. Can’t force him to sign it. I’m very glad we didn’t give Soyuncu a huge contract otherwise we would be in a bigger mess with him than we are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taupe Posted 27 October 2022 Share Posted 27 October 2022 I guess he's had no interest in staying for quite some time now, and that's being reflected in his attitude - just happy to see his time out. Why that's happened would be more more guess work, and speculation too far for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 17 November 2022 Share Posted 17 November 2022 https://sportwitness.co.uk/club-will-offer-short-term-deal-leicester-player-fulfil-wish-join-european-giant-next-summer/ Short-term deal offer for Leicester player – Can then fulfil wish to join ‘European giant’ By Naveen Ullal -17th November 2022 Leicester City defender Çağlar Söyüncü’s long-term future seems to be away from the King Power Stadium The Turkey international has made two appearances in all competitions this season and hasn’t featured for the Foxes since their 1-0 defeat to Manchester City last month. He has over six months left on his contract. This, coupled with his failure to convince Brendan Rodgers could see Leicester let go of him at the end of this term. The 26-year-old’s situation with the Premier League side has caught Beşiktaş’s attention, as per Fanatik. The Black Eagles, who want to strengthen the centre-back position in the winter market, have Rodgers’ man on their radar. It’s suggested Leicester will release Söyüncü after his contract with them runs down and his plan is to then join a ‘European giant’. The Süper Lig side don’t fit this bill. Therefore, they ‘will offer’ him a short-term deal in January. Beşiktaş’ idea is to sign Söyüncü on loan deal until the end of this season so that he can be allowed to execute his plan to get a move to a top club next summer. Fanatik doesn’t mention whether Söyüncü and/or Leicester are open to the loan transfer in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton Fox Posted 17 November 2022 Share Posted 17 November 2022 It would seem a no brainer for any of the Turkish teams to get a Turkish international for free wouldnt it. Other than to get his low wages off the books there would be no benefit to us loaning him out for the last 6 months of his contract as I doubt they are going to pay much of a fee either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolhandfox Posted 17 November 2022 Share Posted 17 November 2022 My take is there are more than monetary benefits to moving him and a few others on. Like any normal place of work when people decide their time is up in an organisation, they subconsciously clock off. Having a group of players with 1 foot out of the building can have a detrimental effect on the squad. Ideally would like to see Perez, Soyuncu and Vestiguaard moved on in January, which would free up around 200k a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambert09 Posted 17 November 2022 Share Posted 17 November 2022 I just hope he goes abroad, I think we could easily bag 10m from a prem side for him but we all know that hes a solid player on his day and would improve any of the bottom half teams sides.
