He's referenced some of his family being Leicester fans and some of them being Man Utd fans which he was growing up. I don't recall him directly stating he's a Leicester fan but either way it's clear we hold a strong tie with him and it'll be his career he puts first anyway.

I was fairly sure I had seen him reference attending the stadium and celebrating in front of the area that he used to sit as a kid, I can't immediately find these but pretty sure I remember this being said and I think if you regularly attend games of a team you are a fan even if you also support another team as well. I agree it wouldn't change his career decisions if a big six team came in for him but di think it does make other moves less likely Maybe I'm a bit too trusting but when I see things like this I read them as him being a fan although he dosent specifically use that word 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy_Jeff Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June Goodbye Dewsbury-Hall Hello Kouyate on a serious note, his potential sale will say everything about our PSR standing. It might be a needs must decision which we’ll have to take on the chin. If he does stay he’ll be a big part of how Coops likes to play and still has lots of potential to improve further under good coaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know - it just feels like we're not in any rush to sell KDH or anybody else, which doesn't fit with the 'Leicester must sell before 30 June to avoid 2nd PSR charge' narrative.

Take it and run if we can sell, for any price really. We have Coady, Souttar and can promote Nelson! Invest elsewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevosevic Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June Would he even want to make that move? Cant make a player leave when they have a contract. Not like we would let him rot in the reserves if he didn’t want to leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football fans get weird about this shit. Easy to lose sight of the fact that the players might be human but they just have completely different upbringings to us from a very young age. They'll look at the sport differently, they'll bond with clubs differently. End of the day, Leicester City has been a massive part of KDH's life since he was a little kid. The club is a huge part of his life, his family's life, his upbringing. If you don't think he's enormously attached to it you'd have to be wrong in the head. Doesn't really matter what club or other club/s he "supports" in his downtime it doesn't stop him bonding with Leicester. Kasper Schmeichel was getting carried round Old Trafford as a baby, his dad is one of United's most iconic players, he was born in Copenhagen, grew up in England and Portugal, came through Man City's academy and made his real breakthrough at Leeds. Didn't rock up at Leicester til he was a well established pro who probably hadn't given the club a second thought before that. Since then he's made nearly 500 appearances for the club, has won English football's biggest two trophies here and even watched the club's iconic chairman die in front of him in probably one of the most traumatic events in his life. You don't think any of that has left a mark? Don't reckon he's attached to Leicester or considers himself a "supporter?" Bet he still loves United though. Jesus, Wes Morgan and Marc Albrighton have Forest and Villa tattoos respectively, they'll still never stop supporting Leicester for the rest of their lives, guarantee that. Players are just different to fans. We pick one club and we pick it for life, it's sacrilege to change and its taboo to go cheer for anyone else, even if we uproot our lives and move. Its just different rules for players, they grow up different, they have different relationships with the clubs than we do - often way more intense - we shouldn't be so weird and needy about it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxin_Mad Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June I cant really see how Brighton or Brentford are spending 30-40 million on one player. Its unsustainable for any of the non cartel to do such things. If they do they wil lprobably where we are in a years time unless someone bins this nonsense off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoldenGod Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June 1 minute ago, st albans fox said: Did Barnes really want to leave ? I'd argue Barnes is slightly different as he was one of better players in that season, was established longer than KDH and I imagine wasn't willing to drop down. KDH isn't playing in the championship if he doesn't leave this summer and has publicly said he has no plans to go anywhere, I don't remember the same comments from Barnes. FWIW, when Barnes left I was more upset than Madders, Tielemans etc because he's one of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxford blue Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June I have not seen such a suggestion so perhaps someone with technical ability than me (probably most of you!) could set up a petition to board not to sell and to KDH not to leave? If he is lining up in a City shirt on 19 August a fans thank you would be appropriate eg perhaps a clap on 22nd minute if squad number still the same? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stadt Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June "Some of the StatsBomb analysts have a bit of a man crush on Leicester’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. No, it’s not because he sounds like a Bridgerton character, it’s because he’s really rather good at the football thing. Brighton are potentially also crushing (and maybe deservedly so), while Leicester allegedly have some financial constraints that might make a reasonable deal possible. One to watch."

FoxinNotts Posted 27 June Share Posted 27 June Honestly, it's unbelievable, watching this, the amount of chances he put on a plate, that we missed! We're going to have to improve our finishing this season coming, that's for sure. (Assuming he stays) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
