A Premier League title-winner could well be heading to Leicester City this summer. This would, technically and awkwardly, be the second veteran goalkeeper the Foxes capture during the current offseason. So, who is this mystery champion? And is a move to King Power Stadium likely at all?
Asmir Begovic anticlimax
Obviously us Leicester fans are intelligent enough to know that backup 'keepers are needed. Even thrid choices are seemingly involved with every professional side, not to mention Under-21s and youths offering other options.
I'll be honest with you, City supporters weren't pleased with the first addition of preseason on the whole. However, this different prospective switch would please LCFC's Blue Army fan base much more than the previous acquisition of 38-year-old's Asmir Begovic.
While the King Power twilight zone continues, at least the latest surprising news is more positive than preconceptions and perceptions regarding the previous update. Let's discover how the Foxes plan to pounce for a Manchester City player who Pep Guardiola has talked up over the years.
Leicester City reportedly lead transfer race to sign Premier League title-winning goalie
So, LCFC still have first-choice Mads Hermansen, who doesn't appear close to be getting the stepping-stone transfer he's probably after. This means Jakub Stolarczyk could be in limbo regarding who gets the No.1 role with the Leicestershire team.
Begovic has also been added, somewhat to necessity, as previously outlined. We have Stevie Bausor as the most recent youngster knocking on the seniors' door too. Now City are said to want to add another keeper.
Is Stefan Ortega right for LCFC?
Ortega is supposedly surplus to requirement at Etihad Stadium. If he was signed at Leicester, I presume he'd want to start; illustrating the issues already arising with the convalescing Hermansen not leaving as of yet.
Although, it's never a bad thing to have two, or even three, top stoppers. They push and compete with one another. Anyway, a salient headline is below:
