According to the latest reports on the matter from two different sides of the capital, South London side Crystal Palace and North London outfit Tottenham Hotspur are no longer interested in signing a high profile Leicester City player. The Fox in question is a National Team representative and can therefore command a decent fee; certainly a profit on what LCFC paid Genk for his services.
Meanwhile the East Midlanders have apparently settled their worries regarding imposed Profit and Sustainability measures. Premier League and Championship bosses appeared to have a vendetta out against the King Power team. Though, as I say, City have reportedly resolved issues on their end by offloading some quality, as well as overrated, personnel.
So the two divisions hopefully don't have a leg to stand on, with Leicester City Football Club in the black, to borrow a financial term. However, worries remains in the Blue Army fan base that favoured, or even better, Foxes might perhaps still be sold. Although, with respect to one baller, we can possibly rule out this particular star signing elsewhere after his asking price was increased. That is, unless another English top flight team come knocking! What's the score with Bilal El Khannouss?
Crystal Palace and Tottenham Hotspur no longer in running to sign star after asking price increase
With the Eagles and Spurs pulling out of respective swoops for the 21-year-old due to a fee of £40 million, two sides remain interested. They are West Ham United and an unnamed Saudi Arabian club.

Whether the City support would still like El Khannouss to stay is another matter. Why? I'll tell you: a journalist reported that the Morocco international would refuse to play if LCFC don't engineer the transfer he wishes for.
West Ham United in talks?
It seems to me that the playmaker could now stay. Even though claims suggest the Hammers are advancing:
