A loan until the end of the season seems like a good idea. Then we can look seriously in the summer window for a CF.
If he can't get in Leicester team ahead of that Japanese bloke who scores fluke goals and the Leicester fans think is a joke, a prime example of Asian marketing, I have my doubts. Besides, the BIg German is our centre forward.
He had decent record though , been Croatian international from young ... Maybe just hasn't been given a proper run would be better back up to the polt than what we have it would seem ?
I've texted my Foxes mate for the Leicester opinion. I just remember them buying him for £9m and putting him straight in the team to save their season this time last year, and he played 13 times scoring 3.
Apparently he is likely to be loaned out, with Hoffenheim the favourites to get him. No mention of us.
I just asked opinions, as Ranieri said he was surplus to their requirements, and as he wanted to play could be loaned out or sold. With the price we got for Charlie we are not in the big league on signings, so loans are going to be the order of the day.
The intelligence from Leicester is that he's very good, they beat Chelsea to sign him, only Vardy keeping him out. If he's that good he's not coming to us.
If he's that good he'd be wasted with us. We really need a decent winger who can cross a ball, especially as Phillips is on his way...
