Leicester City has ramped up their efforts to secure the services of midfielder Oliver Skipp, who has been identified as a prime target for the club. While Leeds United has also shown interest in the talented midfielder, it seems that Leicester is now in pole position to sign him from Tottenham Hotspur on a permanent deal.
Negotiations between Leicester and Tottenham have progressed well, with a verbal agreement in place for Skipp’s transfer. The Foxes have gone a step further by scheduling a medical appointment for Skipp, with plans to complete the signing on Monday. Leicester is optimistic that the process will be smooth sailing and that they will soon be able to unveil Skipp as their latest acquisition.
On the other hand, Leeds United will be left disappointed as they miss out on yet another transfer target. Their pursuit of Skipp will be in vain, with Leicester set to beat them to the midfielder’s signature. This setback comes on the back of losing out on Georginio Rutter to Brighton and also seeing key players like Archie Gray, Glen Kamara, and Crysencio Summerville depart from their ranks.
Leicester City’s swift and decisive action in securing Skipp’s transfer reflects their ambition and determination to strengthen their squad. The Foxes will be hoping that the addition of Skipp will bolster their midfield and help them achieve their goals for the upcoming season.
