Gotta be excited after the rubbish we’ve had to endure in recent years. Finally feels like we have a plan. Let’s hope so

Crikey! They need to shift a few! Loan is a possibility. You’d imagine Marseille would have to rebuild with some cheaper targets.

Normally I think that’d be a good link, but I though Marseille were under FFP scrutiny and had to sell loads of players? Is that right, Windows?

Back to business tomorrow. Going to be interesting to see who turns up & who doesn’t. Going to be a busy one this summer. Can’t wait for this season.

They should still have plenty more to spend if they sell Maxi Gomez. We still don’t have a definitive take on what Ralph wants to do with Boufal yet.

Exactly. 100% profit on those sales too.

Good stuff! Cheers for the update, FF.

Let’s hope not. I want him to get a good move for himself & kickstart his career. Blackburn might be a wise move. Not sure how they can finance it though.

Correct. He did.

SSN report Blackburn are in talks...

Alan Nixon saying he’s willing to take a wage drop to get a move.

You never know how any signing is going to turn out, but fans of the club the player is leaving being upset is always a good sign.

Thought I’d bump this thread up with him being mentioned as someone we might be looking to move on. Surprised he’s not been linked away anywhere yet. His agent is normally sending him all over the place.

Nice work fellas.

The beauty of this deal which is easy to forget is that it's ALL profit. Unlike if Clasie/Boufal/Carrillo ever go, there's no sell-on fee to pay, there's no leftover instalments to pay etc.

Assuming it’s not telegraph spin. (They had Tadic going for £17m / 18m didn’t they?)

Nearly done according to Sam Wallace. Finally some cash to spend on a centre-back / wing-back.

Yeah, it was always going to catch up with us eventually Lots & lots. Loan moves for most of them at best, IMO.

Leicester sign James Justin.
