Wonder if we will announce any signings before they go off on holiday

Does anyone know the details on the Jordan James £5m option to Leicester.
Is that available to everyone now theyve gone down?

Doubt it, it’s likely his price has gone up a little after scoring 11 in 32 for Leicester from midfield.
Especially if it’s a PL team like us that comes calling.

Not Luke Thomas at Leicester I thought he was ok but the man is a always getting relegated

Depends if the £5m is a clause in his deal

I hope so, think he’s another midfielder that Lampard could help take to the next level, and would be a bargain too.

Plus Newcastle paid 55 million for him and wasted another 75 million on that lanky German who Howe is now playing in midfield.

I don’t think a player would be announced until after his own clubs season has finished at the earliest.
I expect it will be a slow process the way agents work, World Cup and players holidays. Managers always say it’s the agents and players that drag the process out. In an ideal world they want all their signings done before the start of pre season - it just doesn’t happen.

Whatever Doug does this summer, he needs to stay away from this thread! Some absolutely honking suggestions that would see us relegated.
We need to strengthen the team and bring in 6-10 players. Not Championship wannabees, mediocre players from derisory leagues in Europe, or past it journeymen that sound good because the have some PL experience but haven't been able to sprint in three years. It is going to cost us a bit, but we have to have a good go at it. The recruitment team are going to have to excel, but it can be done.

He's quality and won't get kicked as much. He'll get a bit more room in the Prem. He's marked tightly because they're shit scared of him

We won’t be spending the money Sunderland and Forest did, but the reality is that is what it takes. I can see about 5 coming in and maybe another 2 in January. What we can spend as a new club will shackle us under the financial regulations anyway. The newly promoted teams are always at a disadvantage due to the financial rules or risk being docked points.
He must be trying to to move on if that's what he's up to.
