Foxes close to N'Guessan deal

Wed 10 Jun, 03:35 PM


Leicester are close to agreeing a compensation deal with Lincoln for the transfer of Dany N'Guessan.

The 21-year-old French playmaker turned down a new deal with the Imps at the end of last season and has been talking to the Championship newcomers ever since.

As N'Guessan is under 24, Lincoln are entitled to a fee for the player.

With the annual meeting of the Football League set to take place later this week, Imps vice chairman Bob Dorrian told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "I think a lot of things can get done (at the meeting).

"The Leicester chief executive is going to be there and it may get done over a couple of pints, you never know."

  1. Howard ,Hayles and Dickov,fine servants though they may­ have been are sadly now all past it.We need 2 younger­ better quality strikers for the forthcoming­ Championship campaign.

  4. Howard's goals got Derby promoted and the last time­ he played at the Hawthorns he got a hat-trick - Matty­ is a top class goalscorer who went thro' a poor 18­ months (too many different managers and a few too many­ ounces?)but will now be rarin' to go. No worries on­ the striker front - plus we've still got DJ !?!

  6. 2 season ago we went down because we had no fire power­ (the best defence but no ruddy strikers), we had no one­ who could score at championship level week in, week­ out. And that included Matty. So far I see a great­ defence, midfielders and wingers, ok, but just like 2­ seasons ago, no total monsters up front. We can't­ go in with a 'they where great in L1' attitude,­ we need 2 well known premier/championship strikers or­ by the time we find out that we should have had them,­ half the season will be gone and the championship is a­ blood bath. I am getting really nervous, seems like­ dejauvu.
