Assuming Tielemans was to sign, he, Maddison (again as long as he stays) and Ndidi make up the 3. Choudhury is also there and then Mendy. Possibly keep Mendy for the year and then let him go? Depends if we have someone else coming through the academy. What position is Tavares? The other lad Dewsbury-Hall (?) seems to be outgrowing the u23’s as well. Not sure if even in a years times either would be ready to play a part in the squad but Mendy could be a stop gap in that senseOne thing that does need sorting this window is Papy Mendy. He has 12 months left on his contract. Either sell him or give him a new deal
If we want to keep Mendy for just another year give him a new deal and then sell him next year. That way we will make a few quid out of it and possible get the £13M transfer fee backAssuming Tielemans was to sign, he, Maddison (again as long as he stays) and Ndidi make up the 3.

So apparently Ricardo to PSG now. So that’s Maguire to Man City, Maddison to Man Utd, Ricardo to PSG, Chilwell to Man City and Tielemans to not return to sign for Spurs. Really will just be Schmeichel and Evans turning out in the opening game of the season if the media get their way![]()
I know mate, just find it funny how the media actually think we’ll let all the above leave. They’re all on long contracts and the club don’t need to sell. Pay big or **** offBS. PSG have to be very careful with spending as they will fail FFP. Apparently buying 2 players for £350M in a season isnt a great idea.
We paid £25M for Ricardo and after the season he has again he will probably cost about £60M which they cant and wont pay
The transfer market is broken beyond belief now. Clubs can put massive prices on any players now
Agree 100%. Its the one area of the park where we are blessed with options. Soyuncu continues to get experience with Turkey plus we have yet to see Benkovic. We have a habit of one big sale per year so if that continues rather it was Maguire than Maddison or PereiraIf Man U or City buy Maguire the world has gone mad. He will cost a world record for a defender and as much as I like Maguire I dont think you will find 1 Leicester fan who would consider him world class. Its debatable if he is even the best defender we have between him and Jonny Evans
Albeit he struggled at times last season Riyad Mahrez was priced correctly at £60M as he is world class. If Maguire wasnt English he would probably be talked about for about £40M. Its the simple fact he is English and we dont want or need to sell why he would cost so much
I would like to keep him but with Evans, Morgan, Soyuncu, Benkovic and £75M+ coming in. It wouldnt be the end of the world
Hes 30, so maybe its not out of the question that hes looking for 1 last big career ending contract.We are being linked with Ivan Perisic from Inter Milan - really doubt he would come to us without European football but is a good sign that we are being linked.
Apparently they have a shed load of money from the Champions League and their new stadium and all of his has been promised to Pochettino to keep him at Spurs - can see them chucking money around like Man City...Spurs with in talks with Lyon over Tanguy NDombele
He would cost about £60M so unless they sell Eriksen which seems unlikely atm until Real sell some players. I cant see them making a serious bid for Youri Tielemans
Hmm, Champions League money even pails into insignificance compared to Premier League money doesn’t it?Apparently they have a shed load of money from the Champions League and their new stadium and all of his has been promised to Pochettino to keep him at Spurs - can see them chucking money around like Man City...
Creative accounting is the answer - is the way that we are able to afford a £100m training ground and still not fall foul of FFP because we are borrowing against future earnings or something like that.Hmm, Champions League money even pails into insignificance compared to Premier League money doesn’t it?
Not sure how they work out the stadium gives them money as well as it cost £1billion. Maybe long term but they’ll be in debt similar to Arsenal with their new stadium surely
