£60m is too much given the totality of the circumstances. Similar to Brentford with Raya (but even worse considering there's no way Maddison will settle for staying another year while they're in the Championship).
That could buy some very very good CAMs in Europe.
Leicester can categorically fuck off at that price.
That’s getting close to Kane valuations.
IIRC, That's exactly what happened with Bruno Fernandes, we walked away and Man U came much later with a lot lower fee and got him.giving them a free run at Raya
which to be honest i could see that happening right at the end of the window when brentford realise no one is going to foolishly pay 40 mill so they end up offering him to united for half that or one of man u's cast offs
IMO, we should get the vicario deal over the line, and focus all our energy on the CB situation (Tapsoba, Tosin) and outgoings. Come back late in the window for Maddison, I'm sure they will soften their stance, especially if they see Brentford looking like mugs with the Raya situation.£60m is too much given the totality of the circumstances.

The quality of our signings is almost inversely proportional to the price. Practically every one of our big money singings has been a flop.

I don’t think this was once true but Prem goalkeepers are afforded more protection than they used to be.I don't think "PL proven" applies as much to GK as it does to outfield players, so the risk is significantly lower.
Only issue is we really need home grown players..£60m is too much given the totality of the circumstances. Similar to Brentford with Raya (but even worse considering there's no way Maddison will settle for staying another year while they're in the Championship).

Fixed.ps Brentford are going to have a very pissed off keeperin goalon the bench for them next season!!
The first time Vicario drops a cross, he’s probably going to get booed by 5,000 overweight taxi drivers — especially if Winks and Sanchez aren’t on the pitch.Do they think it helps anyone to be a toxic cunt before the player even arrives?
The timeline suggests that his involvement was before his ban.Still consulting a man who's been banned for 30 months for false accounting, Levy really has no shame.
Eze is home grown.Only issue is we really need home grown players..
Gonna need Maddison to kick up a bit of a fuss to get his move if he really wants it
I would of thought they was quite in the shit financially and needing the money?Leicester probably feel that if noone coughs up the 60 mill they are demanding then Maddison staying for a year more will help them get back into the PL. He can then walk away for free but they will be back in the top league and all the riches that entails.
That's why they are quite relaxed about the situation.
Decent
Feel like Caqaeret or Hatate are pretty important with Bentancur out and his recovery taking a while.
Que?Portuguese speakers find Italian a very easy language to master.

Is this data thingnup and running yet, seems a bit early days.I’m doubting what we are seeing is data led recruitment. It’s following the list that Fabio left behind I suspect. Too many Italian league links to be otherwise.
