Leicester City identify ‘possible replacement’ for star – Foxes could be in line for cheap deal

According to an Italian report, Leicester City is emerging as a potential destination for Pierre Dwomoh, a midfielder currently on loan at RWDM from Royal Antwerp. Dwomoh’s loan stint has been productive, with two goals and an assist in 21 appearances catching the attention of several clubs, including Leicester and Inter Milan.

FcInterNews affirms that Inter Milan is closely monitoring the 19-year-old’s progress, as evidenced by their recent scouting of the Belgian U19 international during a match against Club Brugge. Dwomoh’s existing contract with Royal Antwerp extends until 2024, with a further option for an additional year, setting the stage for potential developments in his future next summer. As a result, both Inter and Leicester could find themselves in contention for his signature.

The report suggests that Leicester views Dwomoh as a “possible replacement” for Wilfred Ndidi, whose contract expires in 2024, thereby creating an air of uncertainty regarding his future with the club beyond the current season. Should Ndidi depart, Leicester might pivot towards securing Dwomoh as a potential successor. Alongside Inter and Leicester, other clubs such as Lazio and FC Porto are also keeping a watchful eye on the promising Belgian midfielder.

In terms of valuation, FcInterNews indicates that Dwomoh’s initial asking price hovers around €5m, a figure conceivably within reach for the Championship side, making the prospect of his acquisition potentially feasible for Leicester City.
