Edgar Davids on his way?

[Spanky Fox]

News of the press straight from the Netherlands,

This story broke onto the back pages of every paper within the last 2 hours, some are saying that they are in "advance talks", some papers say "done deal".

David’s is a Legend here in Holland, his first spell with Ajax went great and his second spell wasn't as good, he had a few contract offers from teams in the Netherlands but rejected because let’s face it playing championship football is better this league here.

The fact that he is in talk with Leicester city is superb for me because now a lot of people know who Leicester City are and where they are so now we are on the map!!

Speaking to a few Dutch fans who seen him week in week out for his second spell agree that he has still got it and his technical ability and creativity is great, his work rate is really high, but he does lack in some places.

The biggest problem we could face is "Is Edger David’s bigger than Leicester City" if so then he will flop, I for one trust NP signings and if he has come out and he is actually opted to sign him then I think he will do great for us, but I would only keep him till the end of the season and see how he gets on.

I have met him on a few occasions and he is a great bloke!

I'm gobsmacked. Perhaps he could be an extra step towards the play offs and promotion. He might be a bit slow these days, but surely his class would dominate the middle of the park.

I will believe it when i see it though. Watch hulll, wigan and the like come in now.

I read somewhere on the interweb (can't remember where, so sorry!) that Portsmouth denied interest.

Hmmm, just seen the sky sports article. The guy looks ancient in the picture they provided. Never mind.

Im so glad that i didnt get my shirt printed yet. *fingers crossed*

Nothing about Portsmouth, a line said portsmouth dropped there interest over the weekend, Also there was a funny line that said something like " Why go to portsmouth you are better off staying here" haha.

I will keep you guys posted but if it makes it on the www.nu.nl means its pretty serious, also his car has been spotted in leicester apparently - his english number plate is something like "EDG 9AR" so they say a BMW X5 if you wanted to know by any chance.

Hmmm. Is that a standard response, similar to a Chairman's vote of confidence in the manager he is about to sack?

Haha. I was searching on my phone, for a Portsmouth forum to get their take on it, and stumbled across it. But Spanky's post says the Dutch papers have that info too.
