a couple of years back, slimani had been a transfer target for mainz. after his great performances at the world cup he became too expensive for us but i very much rate him and think he's a good signing...
We've been after him for the last 4 or 5 windows. I'm glad we've got him now.
Steep fee, but he's a great poacher and awesome in the air, which we lack massively. Has a great work rate too so should fit in nicely.
Plus his name is Islam so he'll probably be worshipped like a god in Leicester
