  .Ravenelli Rumour(01/06/01)  
 

Have you noticed how every season, just about the time it's your last chance to renew your season ticket, Leicester are linked with a big name? Well this season's super new signing was rumoured this week to be Lazio's Fabrizio Ravanelli.

Reported to be longing for a return to the Premiership, the Silver Fox could well be at home with the Foxes, and comes highly recommended by Sven Goran Eriksen at the cheap price of £2m (He is 33 after all).

Speaking on the official site whilst out at La Manga with England, (blimey, talking about his club team instead of England??! Must be desperate for ticket sales!) Taylor said,

"There is a definite interest in Ravanelli.

"I would put it no stronger than that at the moment. We have opened the lines of communication but any discussions are still very much in their infancy.

"It's no secret that we are looking for a striker of high calibre who can play at Premiership level."

Ravenelli was a record signing for Middlesbro from Juventus in 1996 costing them £7m and helping them nearly get relegated amongst all sorts of accusations that he yelled at players and was bad for club morale. And he wants ridiculous wages of £30k a week.
