N'Guessan To Definitely Leave Lincoln

13th May 2009

In a follow-up to our story about Dany N'Guessan reportedly joining Leicester City, we can now confirm that part of the story at least, is correct.

N'Guessan will definitely leave Lincoln City FC next month as today, the club confirmed that he has rejected the offer of a new contract. Lincoln City have now given N'Guessan permission to speak to other clubs as he is free to leave under the Bosman Ruling.

Luckily, he is under the age of 24 and combine this will Lincoln's offer to N'Guessan of a contract of higher value than his current one means that Lincoln will receive compensation for him. The process now is that N'Guessan's agent will speak to potential suitors about the Frenchman joining them; N'Guessan will then negotiate terms and accept a deal at a new club.

Next, this club will have to speak to Lincoln City FC to table a bid for N'Guessan. Lincoln are entitled to reject this or any other bid for him; should that happen then the two clubs will go to a Football League tribunal who will assess the evidence before setting the transfer fee.

If Leicester have won the race to sign N'Guessan then they will have beaten off competition from Doncaster Rovers, Ipswich Town, Leeds United, MK Dons, Nottingham Forest, Reading, Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday. However, Lincoln City have also stated that they have not yet received any offers for N'Guessan.
