Leicester is currently vying with Everton to recruit a £17 million “machine” midfielder.
Leicester City reportedly made their first move this summer to sign a £17 million midfield partner for Nigerian Wilfred Ndidi, after holding onto the player.
News about Leicester transfers
After a turbulent start to the summer transfer season, in which Enzo Maresca and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall both left the King Power for Chelsea and Stamford Bridge, positive things are finally starting to look up for the Foxes.
When Leicester was left without a manager, they looked to Steve Cooper. Since then, Issahaku Fatawu has joined Caleb Okoli, Michael Golding, Bobby De Cordova-Reid, and other new players on a permanent basis. But Nidid’s new contract, which Leicester signed this summer, is their most underappreciated acquisition given the midfielder’s apparent impending free agency departure.
