Transfers
- Outgoings -
At first, I wasn't so sure I wanted to do this sale, however, I couldn't see me using him much as I believe his cons outweigh the pros in my eyes, and for 18M I couldn't so no.
I'm going to be honest with this one, I cannot stand Iheanacho IRL which pushed this sale. He could become decent I guess so I did try and get a big % on the next sale profit but they wouldn't go any more than 40%.
With the arrival of James Justin and hoping he will become a very good RB in the future, I didn't see the need for me to keep Amartey and I believe 15M is pretty decent for someone who always seems to be injured.
With the purchase of Castillejo, Gray decided to start being a ***** and kick-off. So the very next day he's out the door.
I wanted to ship Albrighton out this window but was only getting loan offers. Then Burnley came with a loan with an optional fee of 17M, I guess that will do.
Mendy is also loaned out as he is just simply not going to play. With Choudhury, Ndidi and also Ajer who can play DM.
The board seem to be happy with the sales so far, so that's good.. right?
- Incomings -
Okay first, can we just congratulate my 'Head Of Youth Development' for making this unreal signing? Oh boy...
My first buy in the market sees me get Odsonne Edouard from Celtic for a fee of 12M that can rise to 20M. I'm hoping he can learn some tips from the main man Vardy and will become a success and reach his potential.
With me getting rid of Benkovic I needed a CB as our only other back up Wes Morgan. Ajer will most likely go straight into the first 11 and I may try and get another CB in but one for the future.
The last buy of the first summer transfer window is Castillejo. Took me a while to decide if I wanted to do this deal but, having got him pretty cheap and with Perez being the only winger we have that likes playing on the right I decided to go with him.
I think I'm happy with my business in the first window, I did want to get a few young talents in however with 27M sitting in the bank, I will do my research to find them for the January window instead. We also have lots of players out on loan that I want to get rid of so plenty more money to come in.
Pre Season
Rostock vs Leicester City
? - Ayoze Perez
Offenbach vs Leicester City
? - Dennis Praet
Bieldefeld vs Leicester City
? - Jamie Vardy
Frankfurt vs Leicester City
? - Frederik Rønnow
Leicester City vs Fortuna Sittard
? - Youri Tielemans
Leicester City vs Real Betis
? - Nabil Fekir
I think pre-season went okay? Due to my actions taking so long signing the players, they didn't get a lot of time to play with the team but hopefully, it won't be a huge problem. I am fuming with the Real Betis game though, throwing away a 3-0 lead.
