Leicester may sign relegated EPL man if these players are sold

For Leicester City, entering July means the return of the Premier League suddenly feels a lot closer. The Foxes have five friendlies before the competitive action begins, rounding off their pre-season fixtures by welcoming Sevilla to the King Power Stadium on July 31.

Brendan Rodgers will already have last season’s eighth placed finish firmly at the back of his mind as he hopes to haul his side back towards fighting for the Champions League places as it did for the two campaigns prior. Many have strongly argued that a summer rebuild is required to see LCFC scale those heights once more, with others putting the lacklustre nature of 21/22 down to fatigue, injuries, and bad luck.

If a large squad overhaul is on the agenda, City are acting in very little haste, with Eldin Jakupovic the only senior squad member departing thus far as his contract came to an end. July 1 does signal the beginning of a new financial year, so perhaps the mysterious lack of transfer activity can be attributed to accounting technicalities with financial fair play.
