So, as the season has kicked off this weekend, and we beat West Brom is a shaky start but a comfortable finish to the match 3-0, we are all wondering who/when are we going to make some signings.

So far we have sold Chilwell for around £50 Million to Chelsea, and we have brought in Castagne for around £20 Million, so we have £30 Million from Chilwell still in the bank that we could/should go and spend this transfer window!
Not only that, rumour has it that Gray is leaving us to go to Spurs for around £20 Million, which would not be ideal but if he wants out then fair enough.

So if that happens, we would be back to around £50 Million to spend this window, which is not a lot but with all things considered it could be worse, and if we can get some bargains from it, we could be doing some good business…

So is Fofana worth the £25-30 Million they are asking for?!
He has made 17 appearances, yes only 17, in the french league for Saint-Etienne, and he has been a little decent player for them! But surely the asking price of £25 Million is ridiculously high?

This is what Leicester Fan Tv’s Sam had to say…
“He seems like a good player, but we have around £30 Million to spend, and if Gray leaves us that would be an additional £20 Million we could go and spend, so i’d like to see us spend it on some proven quality. Yes we need a new CB, but to spend £25 Million + on a defender who has had a few good games in the French League is not good business, if he becomes good then yes it’s good, but it is a huge risk that i don’t think Leicester can afford to do this season with all the competitions we are in. We should invest that money into a proven CB in the Premier league, rather then taking another risk…”

What do you think about Fofana coming to Leicester? Would you be happy about him at Leicester? And is £25 Million the right price for that, or is it too much…

Watch his highlights down below here, and maybe he is worth a bid…
