Wolves lead Man City, Leicester in transfer race

According to reports, Wolverhampton Wanderers lead Manchester City and Leicester City in the transfer race for Rayan Ait-Nouri.

If true, this latest Leicester City transfer rumour concerning Angers’ Rayan Ait-Nouri could be a blow to the Foxes. That is if the second most recent hearsay about Ben Chilwell’s supposed impending switch to Chelsea is correct.

Basically, if the current Leicester left-back does depart, the King Power outfit will arguably require a new signing in his position. One that is proficient at the standard of Europe’s best five top-flights. Because, regardless of obviously disappointing displays overall last season from Chilwell, he is an England international and quality player.

Veteran left-back Christian Fuchs is still on Filbert Way, along with the Development Squad graduate Luke Thomas. He also occupies the same understudy role as the Austrian.

Yet, one is definitely considered an elder statesman so won’t be number one choice in a massive campaign. Despite Fuchs’ clear talents an experience. While the younger is possibly too inexperienced to takeover as the main No.3 right now. Although, Foxes of Leicester envisions Thomas ultimately becoming a Three Lions regular in the future.

Leicester City to miss another transfer target?

Therefore Foxes target Ait-Nouri might have been an ideal incoming option to hypothetically replace the thought to be outgoing Chilwell. Unfortunately for the East Midlanders, it is claimed that Wolverhampton Wanderers are ahead of Manchester City and Leicester in the race for the Frenchman’s signature.

Although, Ait-Nouri is only 19-years-old, too, the same age as Thomas. Maybe missing out on this one isn’t so bad after all.
