Leicester City fans have just received the confirmation that one of their star players wants to leave. The latest bitter blows for the East Midlanders will be hard to take, of course. It will also be hard for the Foxes to immediately replace the man in question. However, most of the Blue Army will have been expecting one or more of their premium assets to depart the club for obvious reasons.
In addition to those factors, generating funds and balancing the books is a must on Filbert Way. So who is this mystery Fox now set to exit a troubled King Power Stadium? What is his apparent transfer valuation? And do we agree with what is said to be taking place or imminent? Here is the latest from Filbert Way.
The ballers likely to leave Leicester City?
First of all, City will probably lose up to three if not more of their best or most valuable assets this summer. The two that come to mind are Mads Hermansen and Bilal El Khannouss.
Even talented winger Stephy Mavididi reportedly has interest from Serie A in Italy. Furthermore, a few other lesser rated or less well-known LCFC professionals will also probably be out of the door as well. Although, this article concerns arguably the most highly regarded current Fox.
A bitter blow for Foxes who now have confirmation that their star players wants to leave
The fact that Leicester typically sell one of their best players over the offseason is a contentious issue at the King Power. And those in demand footballers often actually imply that they'd like to go, to our annoyance. Label the behaviour disloyalty if you like, I won't stop you. Unless journalists or agents do the talking for athletes.

On this occasion, the news is less of a shock considering the Foxes were predictably relegated with a whimper. So I'm sure the majority of Leicester's Blue Army fan base are expecting to read the above and below quote from a widely followed journalist:
