Why this international striker rejected Leicester transfer
Foxes of Leicester explain the reason why Poland international striker Adam Buksa rejected a possible summer transfer to Leicester City.
Clearly Leicester were after a striker in the summer and were linked with a plethora of potential incomings and supposed targets. Eventually Patson Daka was the chosen one; a very solid addition as well as being a possible Jamie Vardy replacement, if anyone could be. Daka recently scored his maiden Premier League goal then supplied four finishes in Russia in the Europa League.
Other linked men included Odsonne Edouard, then of Celtic, now at West Ham United. Not to mention Ivan Toney, then of Peterborough United, and now at Brentford in the English top-flight.
Another forward connected with a prospective switch to Filbert Way was Poland international Adam Buksa. Buksa was apparently targeted after the signing of Daka, strangely, meaning it is unfeasible or the timeline is imprecise.
"…it’s hard to imagine a place for Buksa at the King Power – especially as neither Vardy, Iheanacho nor Daka are going anywhere soon.According to Sport, the 6ft 3in Poland international turned down an offer from Leicester before September’s transfer deadline.It’s understood he wasn’t exactly enamoured by the idea of joining Leicester’s Belgian sister club OH Leuven on an initial loan deal.Via HITC"
How to stop Cristiano Ronaldo via Leicester City’s Brendan Rodgers
Everybody is aware that formerly outstanding Premier League centre-back Caglar Soyuncu has struggled so far during this early campaign stage. However, with Jonny Evans’ welcomed return over the weekend, as Leicester defeated Manchester United 4-2 at King Power Stadium, Soyuncu’s display received instant elevation and improvement.
A by-product of this refinement at the back ensured Cristiano Ronaldo was kept exceedingly quiet throughout the afternoon in Leicestershire. Though, if you study the pressing or tactical system and believe Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers, stifling Ronaldo was a plan executed wonderfully efficiently.
According to the Northern Irish gaffer, a synchronised press is part of the job, and not as easy as it sounds to complete. Along with the concentration to deal with the Portugal legend when he arrives in the box with the ball. Rodgers added that this was achieved with great difficulty due to Ronaldo’s renowned expertise.
