Speculation Motown's hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2016 rumours thread

[Profondo Rosso]

only played 12 games last season so hope he passes medical

???

He played all 34 games and was Hannover's player of the season?

I see he was in ManU reserves squad back in 2008-1010 so possibly has played with Drinkwater, James and deLaet already.

Nice

Sounds like a good signing for that price and important to add some competition in that area. Thumbs up from me...

Yep.

Similar height, build and style to Schmeichel which makes sense when you think about it.

He's too short to be top class but will be a very able second keeper and will relieve my panic at the prospect of Schmeichel getting injured.

The second from left on front row must have been punching above his weight a bit. Wonder where he is now.

That's the 'babyfaced assassin' 22 years old when that picture was taken.

http://www.cleansheetsallround.co.uk/22898/leicester-city-sign-ex-northampton-goalkeeper doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

Merc reporting interest in Wanyama http://m.leicestermercury.co.uk/Lei...-Southampton/story-29337231-detail/story.html

Express says Pearson wants RDL and Matty James at Derby.

Sounds like Sigurdsson interest may have something to it

Two signings would make sense for Pearson.

That injury for James couldn't have been worse timing. It's possible if he had kept himself fit he would be the one benefiting like Drinky.

Good player, James.

Kante:
"Je ne fais pas trop attention à tout ce qui se dit. Pour le moment, je suis à Leicester et je me concentre sur l’Euro."

A fairly normal statement. No doubt people will read a lot into it, but it's the first time I've seen him quoted on his situation.

For those who can't speak French, it's basically "I'm not paying too much attention to everything that's said. At the moment I'm at Leicester and I'm concentrating on the Euros."

FOXES EYE ITALY STRIKER

Leicester are following Torino striker Ciro Immobile, according to Italian newspaper La Stampa.

Immobile joined Torino on loan from Borussia Dortmund and they would like to sign him permanently.

But Leicester are looking to strengthen their squad ahead of a Champions League campaign next season, and have reportedly asked Borussia Dortmund about the striker’s availability.

Heard he's a bit slow....

Wheely?

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

Are there any strikers in this transfer window that we won't get linked with?

Where didn't you hear this?

Where did you hear this?

In 2008 I think. I'm guessing (hoping) it was a response to Fox Franks' post.
