The five players Leicester must sell in this transfer window
By Akash Roy
Dennis Praet – It would be stupid of the club to offer Praet a diminished role upon his return when the plans for his utilization were often limited. The Belgian international now provides nothing extra which could make him an asset.
A loan to Serie A’s Torino has shown that the attacking midfielder can play well within other systems. Thus his return to Serie A for a sustainable future looks like the ideal conclusion for both parties. Even after tough negotiations, the King Power club can expect the buyers to pay around £13 million for the 28-year-old.
Hamza Choudhury – After all this while, Choudhury is yet to find a definitive role in the camp. The youngster has assumed the role of an extra, which the East Midlanders don’t need any longer. With three other CDMs already in their ranks, the fourth one becomes redundant. Last year strong links emerged for a loan spell with Newcastle, but the deal fell halfway through.
The 24-year-old’s market value has plummeted roughly from £9 million to around £4-4.5 million. The club should not wait any longer as the valuation might drop further. Finding a potential suitor for the ‘City Mascherano’ shouldn’t be too difficult.
