The 3 Chelsea players offered to Leicester as Dewsbury-Hall rejects Brighton
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has rejected a chance to join south coast Premier League team Brighton & Hove Albion, according to a claim. Meanwhile the three Chelsea players apparently offered to Leicester City have been named, and they are all senior squad members. Will 'KDH' go to the English capital with one or more Blue coming to Leicestershire?
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall destined to leave Leicester City?
The transfer whirlwind is gathering pace. And Leicester are typically in the middle of some uncomfortable hearsay for their supporters. Judging by the comments on the Foxes' official social media accounts, the Blue Army are annoyed and dismayed.
This is because standout Fox Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is likely to depart King Power Stadium. Which is a real blow for LCFC - whichever way you look at it! Even if the east Midlands outfit must balance their Financial Fair Play (PSRs) books, selling your best is generally inadvisable, obviously.
Yet Leicester have gotten themselves into this mess by not paying enough attention to their dealings over a good while. Or they haven't taken Chelsea's approach by presumably employing the best legal minds around. The Blues probably did this in order to discover loopholes or ways to avoid punishments regarding newly coined Profit and Sustainability Rules.
And we all know City as a selling club, unfortunately for their support. I understand that this is a model that worked in the past, in spite of the fan base's reluctance to see its finest footballers leave the side. But the club has conducted its fair share of bad business while allowing finances to get out of hand.
So, sadly, the Foxes faithful will just have to come to terms with relinquishing prominent personnel ahead of a challenging term. This strategy may continue going forward as well, irrespective of team standing at any particular time, regrettably.
At least Dewsbury-Hall won't be switching to Brighton, a club similar to LCFC in capacity and possible league placing. His moving to CFC remains irritating, although it feels preferable to BHAFC if he absolutely has to go. Don't get me started on the Enzo Maresca element in all this - we'd be here all day!
Which players have Chelsea offered to the Foxes as part of any potential KDH agreement?
To appease LCFC, the west Londoners have ostensibly put a few bargaining chips on the table. Cesare Casadei, a former loanee Fox, is one. Striker Armando Broja is another suggestion; centre forward David Datro Fofana is the final name.
