We aren’t going to sell him for double what we signed him for. Best case scenario we get our money back, or cut our losses and hope someone will come along and take him for free and inherit his wages. Or just keep him as a handy cheap squad player I’m not sure he’s even handy at this stage. His performance at Swansea was pitiful.

Who’s buying them pair? We’d literally struggle to give them away. Didn’t we find buyers in January? If we had found a buyer for Mmaee then I’m guessing he would have been gone considering he was ostracised from the squad at that point. He’s another one we are going to have to take a big hit on.

Who has thrown a £3m value at Souttar??? In what world has he gone from £15m-18m to £3m in less than 2 years? Irrelevant what you may think his actual worth is, purely on accounts he is still going to be worth at the very least £8-10m and I don't see anyone spending that other than a rich club coming down. In all honesty, he will very likely end up on loan back in the Championship next season. Aren't Leicester financially in the shit whether they go up or not? Would be surprised if anyone got him for £3m, but he maybe at a knockdown price. They'll loan him out rather than take the hit FFP wise.

I’ve been told today that we are trying to resign sankho, on a perm deal, price may be a issue so could be a loan with the option to buy

Didn’t we find buyers in January? Mmaee it seems so Not seen anything re Videgal I'd keep Mmaee & probably Videgal too Wes leaving is the big saving ££££ Both are just too slow for Championship. Little threat. Gone hopefully.

This would be a dream squad next season
Travers/Johansson, Simkin, Bonham
Junior, Gooch Cresswell/Dickie/Coady, Rose Edwards/Hause/Hoedt, Wilmot, Dixon* Burrows, Stevens
Burger, Thompson Browne, Laurent, Sidibe* Baker, Cundle
Million, Leris Mmaee, Campbell, Tezgel*/Ennis Bae, Poku
*Either loan out or get them in and around the team

The player might not want to leave. It is up to us to persuade him. Since he came back off the naughty step he's been good The Albion game was by far his best game If, and he can, play like that pretty regularly he's an asset Don’t see that we will be purging the squad again this summer adding key quality definitely but more continuity as well

How much would people be happy to pay for Souttar? 3m tops. Stoke or any club? would expect him to go for around £10m to a parachute payment club, Sheffield United for example he's not an achievable signing for Stoke un less its a loan what CB could we get for £3m? probbaly a fair few but no one like Souttar or Coadey He’s not worth anything close to that. He’s an average to good Championship defender that really needs to play in a 3.

He was awful in the PL, totally exposed for his lack of pace. 8-10m for a flop is way too much.

I like Souttar but he’s been massively over and under rated on here. 50m was genuinely suggested once. That was amazing. He might do well in a team that sits deep and camps. But play a highish line and he’s exposed especially in the PL.

We sold a much better player in Collins for less and everyone in football knew Collins was better too.

Someone hearing that interview with Manhoef where he said he was mates with him and making it up? I mean we might be as it was a bad injury and he’s not done much since but seems like a bit of a coincidence that this has come around after that interview.

How much do you think they would sell? The least I would expect would be 8M. We can't afford him, the only way he's coming here is on loan But it doesn't work that way does it? In terms of finances, it would be worse for them to sell much lower than his current value on the basis of amortisation, wouldn't it? It makes far more sense to wait for a £8-10m bid or continue to loan out for the next couple of season and make it back that way.They won't make any of it back that way.They will manage to get some of his wages paid if they are lucky. Remember how we had to loan out players for years under MON and we didn't get any of our money back either. Mistakes in the transfer market are very costly nowadays and Leicester are going to have to pay the price.

Don’t forget the loan fees they would get Souttar was linked with Leeds and Sheffield United last window Season long loan to that profile of club would net Leicester a hefty loan fee £1m at least
