The Leicester fans seem in disbelief that we would want him. |  | |  |

I really hope not, feels quite underwhelming. |  | |  |
Kasey McAteer on 11:08 - Aug 21 with 6281 views | TRUE_BLUE123 | Really ? Leicester fans reaction is very telling. Never a player who I’ve been impressed by. [Post edited 21 Aug 11:11]

I'd heard that McKenna was having second thoughts on signing Egeli, as he was concerned we needed a more experienced head. Perhaps getting McAteer as a more experienced back-up for £2m-£3m (having got promotion with Leicester last season) PLUS Egeli makes the Norwegian less of a risk? |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I just don’t buy that, personally. |  |

It's a big ask of Egeli to go from Nordsjaelland to spearheading a Championship title challenge week in, week out. McAteer may just help to lighten the load on him, especially with Ogbene still working his way back and Burns unlikely to be seen until Christmas. |  | |  |

I'm with you on that, I reckon there's zero chance McKenna wouldn't want Egeli at his disposal this season, he doesn't take up a squad place either. Feels like we've either a) moved on from him for whatever reason or b) this is in addition to. FWIW I don't mind McAteer, if the price is right. Looked good against us at the King Power last season, but 8 figures+ is a bit rich for me. |  | |  |

Does KM confide in you often regarding our transfer targets? |  | |  |

"Egeli to go from Nordsjaelland to spearheading a Championship title challenge week in, week out" He won't be though as we play with 3 attacking midfielders and a striker. |  |

Oh it's definitely option B. It won't be McAteer *over* Egeli. Unless something's gone horribly wrong with negotiations. Swapping Omari for McAteer would be a huge downgrade. |  | |  |
Kasey McAteer on 11:17 - Aug 21 with 5678 views | itfcjoe | I always like McAteer, think he is an excellent fit for what we want in that right winger and with Ogbene finding his way back to fitness and Burns still out for a while getting someone in to be able to play that role is very important. Hope it doesn't change anything with Egeli, as think he is more of a wildcard signing too |  |

I think we did want Broadhead to stay?! on 11:18 - Aug 21 with 5642 views | unstableblue |

Because he didn’t want to be here, what part of that don’t people understand? |  |
