It’s no real surprise that Leicester City are attempting to sign superstars, they are an ambitious club. But Philippe Coutinho isn’t a likely signing.

We’re into the second week of global quarantine, and ages without football. Sad times. Though your trusted friends and Leicester City bloggers here at Foxes of Leicester will always attempt to offer a bit of knowledge or entertainment when we can. To that end let’s dive into the latest, juicy transfer rumour about the Foxes which has gone international.
