Leighton thinks it's fun ffs!

"It is nice (to be linked with Klose) and I think it's a bit of fun for the fans in the summer when we get linked with all these names. But as players we tend not to get sucked into it all too much. We just go away, enjoy the summer, come back for pre-season and hope a few good faces do come through the door."

His current club. I guarantee wherever he goes he'll be on at least that mate.

they're desperate for him to stay so offer him a good contract, whats to say with he wouldnt take less than that to play in the premier league? all im saying is i hope we dont end up throwing a £10m+ 4 yr contract at someone who is still relatively unproven. especially when yearly wage increases are exactly what's slowly choking our club to death.
 
He's 26. If he signs a 5 year deal with his new club that takes him to 31. I hope you're right and I'm wrong as it would be to Everton's benefit but my gut says he'll want at least the same offer as he already has on the table.
 
I'd bet good money he's asking for a ridiculous signing on fee, and I bet his agent is too. He'll back down and meet our demands I suspect, he's just trying to squeeze as much as he can out of us. Any player would choose the prem over the championship. Are Newcastle/Sunderland whoever else has been linked I forget as far gone in talks with him as we are?
 

Im glad were after a strong powerful player. Moyes has mentioned in the past when playing the likes of chelsea and man city how strong they are physically. If we can compete with the teams physically then the likes of arteta and osman can pull the strings much like silva does for city. Really hope this one comes off......
