It looks like Dennis Praet may never return to Leicester
It looks like Leicester City and Belgium midfielder Dennis Praet may never return to the Foxes after leaving on loan.
Leicester fans generally seemed fairly bemused as to why Praet was ‘not in manager Brendan Rodgers’ plans’ for the 2021/22 season. And subsequent confusion reigned when the Belgian was allowed to leave on a season-long switch to Italian club, Torino.
Though I can shed light on the scenario for those in the Blue Army who remain in the dark: Praet is such a talent that he deserved to be playing somewhere, and likely consequently demanded a move upon the realisation of being unwanted. Alongside the obvious fact that Boubakary Soumare was signed to back-up Wilfred Ndidi and Youri Tielemans.
Whilst exceptional players like James Maddison hover and understudy Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall waits in the wings. Dewsbury-Hall additionally offers the homegrown capacity which helps occasionally.
Basically, Rodgers doesn’t rate Praet as he does some of the formerly mentioned group. And that is that, as they say. The latter issued a type of ultimatum to the boss before so Foxes of Leicester cannot envision an easy resolution or compromise here.

Now the Belgium international has cast further doubt upon his Foxes future after revealing that he is open to a move to ex-club Anderlecht, suggest Leicester Mercury:
