Striker hopes fading

by Admin , 14 June 2010 Striker hopes fading

Blackpool's hopes of landing Leicester City striker DJ Campbell appear to have hit a snag with the two sides failing to agree a fee.


The Foxes forward was a resounding success on loan at Blackpool and his goals fired them through to the play-off final where they beat Cardiff to ensure they play Premier League football this coming season.

Campbell's move to Blackpool on a permanent basis had appeared to be a forgone conclusion but the Foxes are looking for £1.5m for the striker who scored 11 times in 18 games last season and Blackpool do not want to pay as much as that so the deal is in jeopardy.
