The_77 Posted 15 July Share Posted 15 July (edited) 1 hour ago, MPH said: it seems odd we are looking into the Italian market still, even with Maresca now gone. Some of these players may have been discussed with Maresca and Cooper agrees that they’re good targets. We’ve also had a history of shopping in Italy, well before Maresca arrived: Castagne, Ünder, Praet, Inler, Benalouane, Cambiasso (not sure if he counts but he had just finished his contract in Italy before we signed him).

Popular Post filbertway Posted 15 July Popular Post Share Posted 15 July Can't we agree a 40m deal and then just as we're about to sign, tell them we won't pay a penny over 28m. The Italian way, they'd love it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edingleyfox Posted 15 July Share Posted 15 July I'm getting bored with constantly re-circulated stories of Roma, West ham etc preparing bids and the player perhaps preferring Roma etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we actually made a bid to be out bidded? lots of crap being reported now. The most credible sources (and Italian football social media has the most ridiculously saturated pool of "ITKs" anywhere) have all essentially said that Leicester are currently trying to negotiate a fee with Juve. Roma have had an interest but realistically they just don't have the resources to pay what Juve want. The only way he goes there is if the player himself refuses to move to Leicester. But given how advanced the negotiations sound like they are, I doubt that's the case. Roma are owned by a fairly wealthy investor but he hasn't pumped cash in since he's owned the club and they've done a LOT more selling than buying plus they've already spent 20+ on a player this summer. I just can't see them matching what we're allegedly bidding. The only thing I would say is that if this was as far along as some on here seem to hope is then Fab Romano would be tweeting about it multiple times daily and probably wouldn't shut up about it 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our scouting network should be targeting and sizing players in all major leagues. Just because you have an Italian manager jump ship doesn't mean we automatically won't touch players playing in the league that is the same nationality of our previous manager.

Also, cooper gave hints of him preferring the domestic market. So it is a little odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it is a little odd. Could have been a bluff, we love a smoke screen. Top has quick word with Cooper before the press… Leicester are looking at the domestic markets. Then go out and snap up two prospects from Italy early doors and unsuspected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
