Nice, top player, it was always going to be pretty high. I think this will happen.
Brilliant.
Obviously mentioned before by don't they use same agent as Ange.
Personal side of things easy.
Will be great to hopefully get him over the line for about £40m.
Interested to see how Maddison fits into Postecoglou system.
I rate him but primarily in the no. 10. We are crying out for a lock picker and have been since Eriksen.
However, I don't see where he fits into Postecoglou's 433. He's not got the legs to plays as an 8.
His performances a very different playing for England and Leicester. Southgate shoves him out in a LW or RW position and he isn't as influential in the game compared to when he plays 10 for Leicester.
I don't know enough about Postecoglou, but is he willing to switch between a 433 to 4231?

I genuinely believed that but we ended up with Lenglet.
You mean Base agency. Yeh we seem to get mentioned with them a lot, clearly close links
That's the one, thanks! Think we have a few players with them right?
Hopefully makes negotiations abit more easier.
That's close to £200K a week.
I guess Ange REALLY wants him.
I think we will have to play 4231.
I'm looking forward to pre season now.
At Leicester he often plays as a false winger drifting from wide channels centrally, similar to how Foden or David Silva operate, in between the lines and between wide and central.
433 he either plays as the most advanced midfielder or as a false winger which is how he was used in Leicester. I would be tempted to say long term Kulusevski is the player most at risk from Maddison.
Maddison is a fantastic player. Basically double figures for g/a for multiple seasons. He offers a threat in & outside the box, can create, fixes a set piece issue, deals with a HG issue ... so yeah, big wage & big fee expected.
Underrated on here as he doesn't have a foreign name and is a bit of a dick.

SSN reporting Gvardiol to City and Leipzig lining up Lukeba.
Between us and Liverpool for van de Ven I suppose.
We'd be daft to miss this chance but you know, we are daft so nothing surprises me.

AFAIK; the formal application of Leicester is still "You clappy fuckwits".
173k by my calculations
Yep. Really fucking fantastic business if they get that ahead. If those injuries don't hinder him going forward, they've got an England international right back on their hands.
There's this highly rated up and coming DOF that i've heard we're interested in
His name is Pabio Faratici
Watch this space
Thoughts on the concerns of his off the ball movement and physicality?
