20-Goal striker eyes possible transfer to EPL with Leicester

A striker who’s produced 25 goal involvements this season is eyeing a possible transfer to the Premier League with Leicester City. Could Thomas Henry get his wish?

Obviously you’ve all seen the reports along with Foxes of Leicester’s thoughts on the east Midlands team’s links to attackers such as Celtic’s Odsonne Edouard, Southampton’s Danny Ings and Woking’s Jayden Wareham. Any of which are more than feasible as summer switches this upcoming off-season, as preparations for 2021/22 begin.

There is also a lot of talk of fresh attacking midfield options arriving on Filbert Way during the open window. In fact, Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers confirmed the outfit was seeking ‘CAMs’ during the January transfer period.

However, the Northern Irishman made it clear that only realistic signings would materialise, if at all: meaning the Foxes would not allow themselves to be extorted for ridiculous prices for an overrated athlete.

Nevertheless, speculation has ramped up with regard to Leicester’s monitoring, scouting and tracking of potential targets to acquire. The latest one is a forward playing in Belgium, OH Leuven to be exact. And yes, that’s the King Power side’s Belgian sister club.

Thomas Henry eyes possible transfer to Leicester City

Henry is a French centre-forward – there’s been one in the Premier League before with that name, who was decent – and plays as a traditional No.9. He’s managed 25 goal involvements in 27 appearances for Leuven this campaign.

Below is the quote in question from the 26-year-old, who is attracting interest:

"“Other leagues are more prioritized for me; Germany, England, Italy or Spain make me dream more…“Leuven is Leicester City’s sister team, and therefore the transition to the Premier League is easier for me. England attracts me.”– Thomas HenryVia Sport Witness"
