Popular Post moore_94 Posted 9 August Author Popular Post Share Posted 9 August https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/08/09/tottenham-transfers-dominic-solanke-move-closer-65m-record/ Steve Cooper looking for attacking additions Leicester have explored a loan deal for Atalanta striker Bilal Toure to bolster Steve Cooper’s attack before the start of the club’s return to the Premier League. Cooper has been looking for a No 9 to lead his attack and has looked at Toure, 22, as an option. The Mali striker was not a regular starter in Serie A last season, having caught the eye with Almeria in the previous campaign where he scored seven goals in 15 starts in La Liga. Facundo Buonanotte has undergone a medical with Leicester ahead of a loan move from Brighton for the season. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safestandingfox Posted 9 August Share Posted 9 August Good prospect, physical and comfortable involving himself in attacking build up, all for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 9 August Share Posted 9 August Would have to be a loan. There's quite a bit of interest in him, all the usual Prem clubs and Stuttgart. Atalanta paid about 30m all in for him, though. His book value will be massive, it'd take a big bid for them to even make profit. They'd have to think he's pretty shit, which is worrying, to want to cash in for only a nominal profit or breaking even. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 9 August Share Posted 9 August With us focusing on loans I can see why are going to have to leave it late in the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Safestandingfox Posted 9 August Share Posted 9 August Worth noting Atalanta have just signed Retegui, alongside their other attackers Toure becomes the youngest and has played unfortunately little for them. Makes sense they would allow him to leave at least on loan. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve just lost their striker to an ACL injury as well, admittedly they’ve got another striker in but you’d think they’d want to keep him till the other one is back.

However we are restricted in what we can spend because of PSR. We’re also likely struggling to sign players because of the looming points deduction. We were always going to be making liberal use of the loan market this summer. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfc sheff Posted 9 August Share Posted 9 August Highlights are hard to go off. Seems to like a header which I like but doesn’t get many shots of statistically. Maybe skewed from his time at Almeria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
