    According to the Leicester City website it's 500K and another 750K in ad ons, so either them or our website have it wrong, with ours making out it's a straight 1.2 million from the start.

    No where on Leicesters web site does it mention a fee.

    As usual Dreamboy reads but really doesnt understand! On his profile it says - the fee is initially£500 000 rising to a possible £750 000 - but it is talking about his move from Tranmere to leicester!

    little tip for you dreamboy

    Don't read something on here and then just repeat it as if it were true. Chances are that it's not. This is a case in point. A quick look at the Leicester City site reveals they are reporting an undisclosed fee, with no mention at all of £500,000 or £750,000.

    There is this....

    On a message board, posted by "Nick_The_Tyke". Nowt official.

    To clear a couple of things up. I was at Oakwell buying a shirt when he had his photo call.

    Why Barnsley? Because of the clubs interested he felt we presented the best chance of a regular place up front.
    Given (excepting Howard, who is a midfielder) our most prolific striker notched 6 this season, that looks a good bet.

    How much? &pound;500k up front, with 3 conditional further installments of &pound;250k.
    The manager said he expects we will pay &quot;about a million&quot;, so it sounds like 2 of the 3 have conditions which are likely to be met.

    That's all I know.

    According to Mick McCarthy

    one time while he was co-commentating on Oakwell FM or whatever it was, hardly any quoted fees are anywhere near the actual fees paid. It's all spin, hype and bravado.

    Of course, that might have been from back in the days when brown papers bags and "meetings" in St Tropez where de rigour.
