I was also hoping he'd be cover for our pairing. I still get worried that Dann might be seen as a replacement rather than cover. But we know Pulis loves his centre backs.

5m seems a bit steep

£5m is a bargain.

Decent player but 5.5 mil  He only had 12 months left on his contract. Leicester don't seem to have learned the lessons of 2001/2! |

Wasn't this the lad you were all banging on about? I thought he was destined to sign for you.

Sven knows how to sign players, unlike some we all know!

Looks like leicester are going to have a right crack at it next season. Good, there will be 6 or 7 clubs thinking they have what it takes to win the league. The harder it is for WHU and Bham to get back up the better. I'd love it, just love it if WHU & Brum failed to get straight back up and went into financial oblivion.  |

It will all go tits up for leicester, whos chairman there now out of interest? is it Mandaric? How many jobs does Sven have to have a go at before he gets one right? Hes high profile which is a possible attraction to potential new signings other than that a poor manager in my opinion.

Leicester are 5/1 to win the Championship, I've had £20. They're certainly going for it!

Shame about mills, but realistically 5.5mil for a lad who isnt going to be in the first team week in week out seems a bit pointless for us, and 25k a week on a squad player with stokes revenue would be suicidal

Leicester City is owned by a consortium (AFI).
Asia Football Investments is owned in the majority by KingPower but other wealthy investors from Thailand are involved and the Raksriaksorns front it all.
Most of the money comes from KingPower (probably worth about 4bn but it's hard to say) as loans to Leicester City Football Club which have to be paid back when the club can do so, ie when match day revenue is increased in the PL.
It is set up as AFI so KingPower as a company cannot be liable if there is a problem. However this wouldnt happen as they want to use Leicester City as part of their business and for the thai people.

£5m for a player with no Premier League experience! Crazy
