Leicester City defender Wout Faes has been tipped with a move away from the club when the transfer window reopens.
The 27-year-old Belgian centre-back has not shown his best form this season, and he has been under fire for his displays at both club and international level.
The defender is battling for a place in the Belgian national team, and a switch away from the Foxes could be beneficial for him, as per Leicester Mercury.
Wout Faes has found it difficult:
The player has been rotated in and out of the starting lineup at the English side. He has not received a call-up in the last three international breaks either. The defender will be eager for a move to a top club so that he can re-establish his place in the Belgium national team.
Meanwhile, he is not an irreplaceable figure for the Championship side either. It is reasonable to believe that Leicester City could approve his exit if there is a suitable bid on the table. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds. Both parties could look to pursue a transfer in January.
There is no question that he is a talented player, and he is in the prime years of his career. The correct move might revive his best level again.
Faes requires a switch:
With the World Cup approaching, he will be desperate to secure more minutes and boost his chances of featuring in the tournament. He must look to pick his next club wisely. He should aim to join a team where he will be a guaranteed starter and able to compete at a strong level.
Remaining at the Championship side would be a major setback to his World Cup ambitions. It remains to be seen where he ultimately goes.
