Demarai Gray

[raggy]

Spurs, meanwhile, are continuing to monitor Birmingham’s highly-rated winger Demarai Gray, who is available for a fee of around £3.75 million in January.

Paul Mitchell, the club’s head of recruitment, made a personal check on Gray in Birmingham’s 2-0 defeat to Huddersfield earlier this month.

Gray, 19, has a clause in his contract which ensures his transfer value diminishes in each transfer window but Spurs are unlikely to step up their interest until the summer, preferring to focus on signing a new striker.

We've been linked with this kid for some time now. Problem is, I can only imagine we'd be genuinely interested at this point if we've deemed Oduwa unlikely to make the cut, or plan on cutting a senior player such as Chadli.

Leading goal scorer in his league, from wing position at the age of 19.

Leicester win race for Demarai Gray as Birmingham teenager chooses Foxes over Premier League rivals

 

[Larryjanta]

Can see why he'd go there. Competing with Albrighton (who's been excellent for them) and Mahrez (likely gone in the summer) - he'll go straight ahead of their reserve wingers Schlupp and Dyer - will see plenty of minutes this season for a team joint top of the league and likely starter next season with the chance of European football. If there is a reversion to the mean and Leicester move down the table over the next 18 months to two years he can use them as a stepping stone to a bigger club. Shame as he is excellent but, despite our excellent policy on playing youth, he's got to get through an Argentinian, Belgian, Korean and Danish international (with an average age of only a couple years older than him) to start in one of the wide positions for us. I'd probably choose Leicester as well.

I reckon the next club to sign him will have to pay 5-10 times what Leicester do now

Reading the article, says he's not signed yet, and there's no quotes from anyone to suggest a deal is in place. Not sure how reliable the Mirror are, or if Darren Lewis is ITK.

Fair play to the Mirror, credit where it's due.

Wow that is low. I know we have always held an interest in this guy, and for that amount I'm surprised we haven't made a move.

 

[Spursh]

Excellent signing for them

 

[yankspurs]

Wow. Great signing for the Foxes.

Not confirmed but hear Demarai Gray will be loaned back to Birmingham City until end of season if completes his move to Leicester City.

 

[danielneeds]

Good move by him - you'd think the superpowers of European football will woo Mahrez in the summer so he'll have a pathway into the team.

 

[gp13tot]

Would really have liked us to sign him, great talent.

Good business by lesta when they sell mahrez for 20 odd million
