The summer is upon us Leicester City fans. And that usually means one thing: selling a premium Foxes star. Though two standout ballers, or even three, might be transferred out this offseason. That's if the East Midlands outfit wishes to straighten out its Profit and Sustainability problems. That is, as I see it, the only way growth, real growth, can occur on Filbert Way. It's a difficult job, but the best performing clubs will do it!
We have to buy and sell before the crucial Championship season starts very soon. It's just that LCFC must apply much more diligence in how they recruit in particular. In order to be able to stock the squad in the correct manner, many unfortunate and underperforming footballers on the books should be offloaded. In fact, here are eight players Leicester ought to get rid of if they are serious about growing.
8 Unwanted players Leicester City should definitely rid themselves of if they are serious about getting their Premier League status back
First of all, Daniel Iversen and Danny Ward have finally been released. So there's no need to go over that ground again.
Next to go on my list would be Wout Faes. I always thought he'd eventually become a defensive stalwart with flair. But he didn't. City should try to recoup their roughly £14.5million fee before it's too late.
Conor Coady and Jannik Vestergaard. The ill-advised and unnecessary old guard. Get rid as soon as possible! Unpopular opinion: I'd keep Vestergaard over Coady. The latter just rubs me the wrong way for many reasons.
Victor Kristiansen and James Justin were generally awful this season. Both would command decent money. Justin is just about preferable but is thoroughly frustrating again.
I lost respect for Harry Winks when I learned he lived around 100 miles away (and won't move!). I think you should buy into the club, the area and the encompassing philosophies.
Jordan Ayew wasn't a sage investment. It was more akin to planning for a relegation than preparing to stabilise in the Premier League. Patson Daka appeared to be a wise signing; turns out he wasn't!
