If it goes through, Leicester will have paid out some £52 Mill (Including add-ons) but may recoup a lot of it through a Mahrez sale.

I do wonder why we didn't go for this lad , I think the club appears to be putting all of their eggs in one sakho basket , don't get me wrong I want sakho at palace as much as the next man but we do need to cover other areas too

It does seem use majority funds on Sakho and see what's left.

Will it still be a bad business deal? It's well documented that there's a buy back clause for 30m. You spend 2 years developing him and if he does get them into Europe, they can only sell him for a pittance, that's so successful.

I'm sure that I read somewhere that Leicester's last Champions League run netted them £100m so if he is the catalyst that allows them to do it again it will be well worth the investment. Leicester is owned by billionaires who didn't get to where they are today by making bad business decisions and whilst buying the player on those terms might not be the best thing for us it doesn't mean that it's the same for clubs that have different priorities. EDIT - I'm not so sure that your "well documented buy back clause" is correct as all the reports that I have read state that it is a straight £25m purchase Edited by Midlands Eagle (07 Jul 2017 7.59am)
