Leicester transfers: The five centre-backs the Foxes are considering

Now for the last three names, starting with Issa Diop of West Ham United. Diop is a tough opponent, which is something the Foxes faithful like to have on on their back line: think Ex-Leicester heavy, Marcin Wasilewski, as well as current exquisite chopper, Caglar Soyuncu.

The Frenchman, 24, did feature on many occasions for his notable country’s Under-21 team. Whereas his West Ham career might just derail regardless of the recently past campaign, due to competition with favourites such as Angelo Ogbonna along with Aaron Cresswell. Southampton, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Palace are all interested parties, claim media rumours; HITC have the details on the ‘ambitious athlete’.

Our fourth so-called Leicester-linked target, state Sunday Express, is Stefan de Vrij. De Vrij plays for Inter Milan at present, and his agent is Mino Raiola – yeah. Apparently Raiola “offered” his client to LCFC as soon as he knew Fofana would be absent for a decent while.

OK, let’s finish off with another popular defender to be connected with the Foxes, James Tarkowski. According to Daily Mail, Leicester wanted to secure the Burnley player – who has played for England’s senior side – for free when his contract expires in July 2022.

Although, a the contemporary centre-half deficiency issue means someone – at least one addition if not a couple – needs to arrive on Filbert Way. Tarkowski would be a great new face to have on Rodgers’ roster.
