Want Leicester to have to sell a few more yet. Thought they had financial problems?

Have made nearly 80m from 2 sales mind you

Looks like there will be a few more foreign signings to come. Sounds confident plus interesting to hear some ‘surprises’ to come…

Hinting that there might be a few more surprises along the way with players from further afield that fans will not have heard of, Robins told CoventryLive: “I have been on Zoom more times than I care to mention but that has been an instrument that has been really good because it means you don’t have to be flying all over the world to do things.

“Plus we have the GB points system that has opened up for us so we can get up to four players who don’t qualify for that, plus the ones with GB points, so that opens the market up a little bit more.”


Managers in the top two divisions can now sign up to four foreign players who would not have previously automatically qualified for a visa - as long as 35 per cent of playing time has been given to players who are eligible for England. Transfers of this nature have fallen dramatically since Brexit closed the market to targets from the European Union, with players instead needing to meet certain criteria depending on international experience and league standard.

Tatsu Sakamoto is the club’s first Japanese player who already has the makings of a being a huge hit with the supporters based on his early pre-season showings. But asked how his move came about, Robins revealed that he was spotted by accident plying his trade in Belgium, saying: “Through the work that the recruitment lads are doing. We were looking at players and there were other players we were looking at and then, all of a sudden, he jumped out. They passed it onto me to have a look at and then you get a feel for them. But they (Dean Austin and his team) do the groundwork.

“You can’t always go and see them in person but every single one of them are brilliant lads. There are others that I have spoken to and I am hopeful I can get them over the line - brilliant people and good, talented players who are hungry to come in and do well. That’s the key for me, hungry people who want to help take this forward and have the ability to transform things for us.”
