Leicester City’s Blue Army are eagerly anticipating updates on any transfer developments. That includes speculation about whether the Foxes will ultimately recruit additional players.
Regrettably, seasoned goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has been the only acquisition on Filbert Way this summer—a situation notably worse than the offseason when we solely added Wout Faes. Tough times!
Another aspect LCFC fans are keenly awaiting is the potential sale of further assets. Naturally, supporters are unbothered if some lackluster surplus players are offloaded.
However, squad depth remains essential in the Championship. Yet our focus primarily centers on the key players who might exit King Power Stadium.
On that note, there was a sliver of positive news for the East Midlands club’s loyal fans midweek. This came after discovering that fan favorite Abdul Fatawu was a Premier League target earlier in the week. Meanwhile, reports concerning Bilal El Khannouss are somewhat more concerning.
Prominent teams like Arsenal and Bayer Leverkusen admire the Moroccan international, alongside clubs such as Newcastle United, Everton, and Leeds United. What’s the latest?
El Khannouss concerns for Foxes fans
Leicester’s playmaker is entirely justifiably coveted by numerous elite teams. According to the below quote via Sky Sports’ Rob Dorsett, the 21-year-old is likely to depart:
“Leicester more likely to sell El Khannouss [than Fatawu] as things stand, with interest in him from many- RB Leipzig, #lufc and #cpfc all monitoring”
Good news on Abdul Fatawu for Leicester City supporters:
If I had to pick which Fox to retain among Mads Hermansen, El Khannouss, and Abdul Fatawu, I would choose the latter. The Ghana National Team star is a remarkable talent. Truly outstanding.
Fatawu’s electrifying and dynamic dribbling against Sheffield Wednesday captured my attention. He is unstoppable at times. While El Khannouss would be my second preference.
Hermansen, now at West Ham United, is an exceptional goalkeeper. Yet Jakub Stolarczyk is a highly promising substitute. And the City faithful may be fortunate regarding Fatawu’s immediate future:
“#efc currently unwilling to meet #lcfc demands for Abdul Fatawu – the two clubs v divided on valuation and Everton now considering other options.” – (Sky Sports).
