The shortened transfer market, which has two stages, will briefly close on Tuesday, June 10 for around six days. Unfortunately, Leicester City have not made any signings yet. Although, not many people in City's Blue Army fan base expected any to transpire by now due to Profit and Sustainability restrictions. Nonetheless, LCFC have finally pleased their supporters - a bit. First of all and less importantly, the Foxes hierarchy released eight unwanted players. That outgoing quota concerned youth or Under-21 footballers. It doesn't include the three senior men who exited: striker Jamie Vardy, along with goalkeepers Danny Ward and Daniel Iversen.
Crucially for the future, the East Midlands outfit's bosses managed to tie down some up-and-coming stars to protective contracts. Winger Jeremy Monga and stopper Jakub Stolarczyk penning deals in particular was particularly welcomed by supporters. While there have not been any incomings to King Power Stadium of late, hope somehow remains. Foxes of Leicester will continue to assess targets of all likelihood and quality during the offseason.
Today we detail Leicester's reported interest in Cameron Brannagan of Oxford United. The U's are said to be at risk of losing the all-action 29-year-old this summer.
