Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded autumn/winter 2019/20 rumours thread.

Well-connected local podcast Brest On Air report that Premier League side Leicester City have submitted a €16m proposal to sign 20-year-old box-to-box midfielder Ibrahima Diallo from Ligue 1 side Brest.

SB29 had been very clear that they intended to keep the player this month, but the nature of this bid is causing the board to enter into a period of reflection.

Diallo himself is strongly against moving too early and wants to see out this campaign with Brest.

What happens in this period of reflection? Do they quietly scratch their chins for a specified period? How long is that period? Is that their board done for the rest of the season? Have we put them in stasis?
 
They’ve lined up Ibrahim Bra as his replacement.
 
Lingard CAN play inside left or right, has a bit of a pace and is a **** sight better than Demarai Gray. The fact that it has gone remarked upon that he only has two goals this season is the clue. Demarai Gray only EVER gets two goals a season and it doesn't get any coverage. Get Lingard on the ground floor and watch as he flourishes again under Magic Brendan's super midfielder whispering...
 
Too old. Doesn’t fit the model.

That said, model could be changing to add experience to the squad for the addition of European football.
