Leicester City are at last becoming more cautious and carrying out some much-needed activity. This proposed move may not be as headline-grabbing nor as common compared to other talking points within the football world.
Yet I view these types of topics as arguably more significant than other heavily circulated stories and circumstances such as transfer rumours.
I’ll actually address two unrelated Foxes developments on this occasion. First of all, let’s discuss the defensive player who is expected to renew his current LCFC contract. I would say that this is a sensible decision from the under-pressure hierarchy (led by chairman, Aiyawatt ‘Khun Top’ Srivaddhanaprabha) and his staff.
Second on the agenda is some international news. Don’t worry, all the National Team fixtures are concluded. And the Sky Bet Championship resumes on Friday evening; with Leicester in action on Saturday afternoon against Stoke City at King Power Stadium. The latest update relates to a City winger who may be switching international allegiance. Let’s review what’s being reported.
Stephy Mavididi steps up for the Democratic Republic of the Congo:
Mavididi had ambitions of representing England on a national level. But he will now likely feature for DR Congo, if reports on the matter are legitimate and precise.
“Stephy Mavididi ready to represent DR Congo after years of turning down call-ups, as they near World Cup qualification” – [Tribuna]
The Fox is awaiting a call from the ‘country of his ancestors’ in Central Africa. The team are on the brink of reaching the World Cup after progressing to the Playoffs. I wish Stephy and les Léopards the best!
Well-liked Leicester right back Ricardo Pereira’s apparent new contract offer:
Ricardo is one of the senior figures of the Leicester squad at this stage. He is respected by the Blue Army fan base – we just would have preferred to witness more of him.
“Leicester City are set to offer captain Ricardo Pereira a new deal, SportsBoom can exclusively reveal.” – [Sports Boom]
Injuries are, incidentally, the only drawback to offering elite players like the Portuguese defender a new agreement. Though this assertion essentially receives Foxes of Leicester’s approval.
