Leicester City are likely to make a small yet significant profit from a probable upcoming sale of a promising, recently acquired asset. Tom Cannon is doing well overall on loan at Stoke City, therefore his predicted exit may end up haunting the King Power club if they do let him go. What's the score with the ex-Everton starlet?
Meanwhile, the legend that is Jamie Vardy is looking forward to playing Nottingham Forest. And there is no doubt that the former England international has a celebration in mind to wind up the Tricky Trees support if he does get his usual goal. What's Vardy been saying?
Jamie Vardy on Nottingham Forest match
Leicester City's greatest of all time (g.o.a.t.), Jamie Vardy, has revealed that he's relishing the upcoming Forest clash on Friday evening in the Premier League. And he's not the only one, because Foxes of Leicester is very excited for this one. There'll be fireworks - you can guarantee that!
When Forest and City meet for any fixture, something controversial and inspiring typically happens. One of the two sides often hammers the other at home too, so the Trees better watch out at King Power Stadium as the week comes to an end!
In fact, the east Midlanders can shoot up into the top half of the table to tenth. The Foxes could even get up to ninth by overtaking Newcastle United, which would be a brilliant achievement for Steve Cooper and his men after only nine games. However, Leicester would have to be victorious by a margin of at least two to achieve 9th. That's due to 'goals for', if my maths is correct.
Vardy is, naturally, the man to help City reach that particular aspiration. In preparation for the encounter with one of LCFC's Midlands rivals, the 37-year-old can't wait for that “extra spice” in facing a foe. Though 'Vards' also stated that he and his teammates must treat the contest 'as any other game'. “There’s no point letting all the hype around it get to you", the exceptional striker says.
Tom Cannon latest with Leicester City angling for sale
Cash-strapped West Bromwich Albion are the latest Championship club to reportedly get seriously about signing Cannon. While that may be a stretch, many other outfits are apparently willing to part with £10 million for the one-time Evertonian.
Though City must realise that allowing the centre forward to leave might ultimately be detrimental. If not, why is he so in-demand and why did we sign him?!
