Knight offered improved contract

[Kneon Light]

According to the argus today Leon Knight is being offered a new and improved contract. His agent is away at the moment but they will be having talks next week.
Lets hope he signs

There's a page on the stadium inquiry too.

That means he'll be off tomorrow then ala Currie & Cullip... This is exactly the same way they went, just after allegedly being offered contracts.

 

[Beach Hut]

Could be true sadly

 

[Gritt23]

Can't see that we will be getter offers for Leon in this division, as he's not really delivered the goods on a regular basis, and I would be surprised if he wanted to step back down a division.

Once he becomes a free agent in the summer it will be a different story of course.

Can't see him signing for longer though, unless he feels he is going to get a run in the side.

its not the same as Currie & Dc they were only offered contracts when the 2 clubs had actually expressed a firm interest in the players...On this occasion i think the club are being pro-active rather then re-active....

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

he wont sign it and will leave on a free at end of season and cant blame him for it

The club said that all the players who are out of contract in the summer would be offered contracts , or not as the case may be, before Jan 1st. McGhee is being offered a new contract too and that is far more important than Leon IMO.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

i do agree but if we lose leaon we lose our only creative player - i cant see leon staying in mcghee does

 

[Gritt23]

Agree with that completely.

 

[wilderabeast]

We would still get a fee for Leon if he left when his contract expires as he is only 22....i think that he will sign a new deal with maybe a release clause....i think McGhee and Hinch are the priority

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

no we would its only players you brought through the ranks(i think)

 

[mr turd]

He would stay if mc ghee wasn't here thats for sure,but he will go and good luck to him.Deserves better than what he is getting to be honest.

 

[Wardy]

I thought it was all youth players. Bearing mind there is a sale on clause so Chelski would get a slice of any fee we got for him.

 

[rool]

Should he be offered an improved contract?, I haven't seen him at all this year but wouldn't his substantial wages get someone in who is proven to be able to score in the championship?

Just a question like

 

[Wilka]

Go on Leon stay!

Errrrrrrr since when does any real money we recieve ever go towards decent players,the money always gets swallowed up,and we end up with useless strikers.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Yes he should there is a lot more to leons game tham scoring he creates most of our chances when he is on the pitch and his pace troubles defenders

 

[rool]

Well if he was actually being played I might agree but I take your point.

So we still need a goalscorer then

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

to be honest defoe would struggle to score in this side as there is no creative players in the side
