Let’s hope we get the signing over the line and he stays fit. having two wingers is really going to change the dynamic of our play. Who else we signing then? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 12 January 2023 Share Posted 12 January 2023 I have a weird sense of dread about this. Can't shake the feeling it's just Ayoze Perez again only this time more costly in context. Hope I'm wrong. May just be anxiety speaking. Really not convinced, seen him a few times for Fiorentina and he's never stood out as exceptional. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the good signings we've made, we have made enough mistakes to make you fearful. It seems like a lot of money to me (for our club anyway) Get it wrong and you'd feel we're defo screwed. I love the intent it shows but tbh I can't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's fair on the player. His left foot is his strongest, it's the way Fiorentina play which is better suited to wingers instead of inside forwards. But I thought it was fair to share all the comments on the player from fans. I think it's important to remember that Leicester will never sign a player who unanimously is thought of as a great signing. Those players go to the very top teams. Players we sign will have questions around their physicality (Kante, Mahrez), doubts if they can play at the top level (Vardy), wanting to know why another club is willing to let them go (Huth, Schmeichel, Albrighton), or too young to go straight into the first team (Ndidi). We've got to make calculated risks, that's the only way we can compete. I think we should all be excited. We have wanted a genuine left footed player who can dribble and beat a man, plus can finish since the departure of Riyad Mahrez. Nico Gonzalez is an Argentinian international that came on for Angel Di Maria in the Copa America win over Brazil in 2021. With Di Maria pretty much done, that makes him the starting right winger for Argentina, the current world champions. I'm not sure there are many other players on the market we could realistically get who are better than that! I'm not going to call this guy a sure fire success, and I can certainly see why people have reservations. But who else out there could we realistically get, even at this price? - Madueke is young, inconsistent, has had a season littered with injuries and unproven in the major leagues. - Tsygankov has only played in Ukraine. Will a player like that settle like that in Leicester? Can they make it in the Premier League? Maybe, but it's a risk. - Ouattra has only burst onto the scene this year. Could be great, but for a player expected to make an impact immediately, there would be doubts. Ric Flair and I have put some other names out there we could go for, but I can't think of too many better. Ricardo Horta of Braga could be one, who has been consistent for a while, but he's older. Gonzalez is just 24. Maybe Robert Skov on Denmark who is the same age would be another option I could think of. He's got a great shot on him and good at set pieces, but not really a dribbler or ball carrier. Edited 12 January 2023 by StriderHiryu 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnegan Posted 12 January 2023 Share Posted 12 January 2023 Anyone expecting him to be rapid is going to be in for a surprise btw. Not exactly the injection of serious pace the squad needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfcsnow Posted 12 January 2023 Share Posted 12 January 2023 If he’s injury prone in serie a you’d think he’d have problems with the pace of the game here. Technical ability is good as there’s not an ounce of that between Barnes, Albrighton and Daka, the ball needs to stick up front not bounce off players but I do feel we need power as well not just a nice technical player as a Perez replacement.

moore_94 Posted 12 January 2023 Share Posted 12 January 2023 https://football-italia.net/exclusive-why-gonzalez-hasnt-agreed-terms-with-leicester-city/ Fiorentina winger Nicolas Gonzalez still hasn’t agreed personal terms with Leicester City due to their desire to include a specific clause in the deal, sources tell Football Italia. Sources tell Football Italia that Gonzalez has still not agreed to a contract with Leicester City due to their desire to include a clause that’ll allow them to lower his wages should they suffer relegation. The salary itself is not a roadblock and the winger still hasn’t made up his mind yet regarding the move either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So fabrizio says terms agreed and now we have someone else saying not (and giving a good reason too) and there is no sign that we will agree a fee with fiorentina well at least it seems we’re trying …… I wonder how many other players have a relegation clause …..
