Leicester open talks to sign AC Milan standout star…

Yesterday at 14:23

Leicester City have had a difficult start to life in the Premier League.

After winning promotion to England’s top flight, they lost two key figures to Premier League giants Chelsea.

Manager Enzo Maresca left the club to join the Blues as Mauricio Pochettino’s replacement, while midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall joined his manager at Stamford Bridge to begin a new challenge in his career.

The Foxes have signed Caleb Okoli and Bobby De Cordova-Reid in exciting moves ahead of the new season.

However, they could now sign a player from a Champions League club to add more quality to their squad.

Football Italia’s Gianluigi Longari reports that talks to sign Alexis Saelemaekers from AC Milan this summer have now begun at Leicester City.

The two clubs are yet to reach an agreement to transfer the Belgian player from Italy to England.

Leicester City need creativity in midfield

Following Dewsbury-Hall’s departure to join Chelsea, the newly promoted Premier League club are in need of a creative midfielder to help their attackers score goals.

While the AC Milan man is highly unlikely to match the results Dewsbury-Hall had last season, he is still good enough to impress at the club and become part of Steve Cooper’s squad.

Leicester City are making moves in the market to avoid relegation and are expected to bring more players to the club to retain their position as a Premier League team.
