According to a few reports from some of the usual suspects, Leicester City Football Club do actually intend on making one or two signings before the window of opportunity closes. Although, prospective and hypothetical deals will have to suit the East Midlands side due to a number of troubling factors. These matters are, of course, drastically worrying the Blue Army fan base this summer.
First of all, there are Profit and Sustainability problems to attend to or resolve. City are also said to have major funding issues stemming from the LCFC ownership's Asian duty free business. Obviously the knock-on effects here are the team not being adequately strengthened or signings not materialising whatsoever.
Regardless of off-field issues etcetera, what's really needed on the King Power pitch? Firstly, finding and buying or loaning a new striker is the main priority for the Foxes at present. To that end, we have media speculation to discuss on this fine Friday afternoon. LCFC supposedly want to sign Millwall centre forward Mihailo Ivanovic. So, here is what we know so far.
Millwall apparently 'face a fight to retain talented striker Mihailo Ivanovic'
Leicester are linked with a couple of different attackers at the moment. They include Sebastian Tounekti, Fotis Ioannidis, Will Wright (who must have slipped under Foxes of Leicester's radar) and Abdoul Karim Traoré. Although, rumours concerning the final one go back over two months.
While nothing is happening as of yet, the £40 million City have amassed from sales this summer offers hope to us supporters. However, reports suggest City's recruitment staff may have now 'made an enquiry to Millwall' for one of their stars, which is promising too.
#LCFC’s sales now at more than £40m, with McAteer’s fee pure profit.

But some reshuffling for Cifuentes, who saw him as one of his four main wingers. He provided something different to the other three too.
Options there in Evans, Marcal, De Cordova-Reid. https://t.co/I4pgiCJk8D
The fact that Ivanovic managed a goal in every three C'ship games last season lends optimism as well. Yet LCFC apparently face competition for the 20 year old Serbian:
