Leicester City are eyeing a move for Liverpool center-back Jarrell Quansah, and if the deal goes through, it could pave the way for Harry Souttar to leave the King Power Stadium.
The Foxes are on the lookout for a central defender in the January transfer window to bolster their squad and improve their chances of returning to the Premier League. While they currently have strong options in Wout Faes, Jannik Vestergaard, and Conor Coady, the depth of their squad could be crucial in their push for promotion.
Leicester’s recent back-to-back losses before the international break have given hope to teams like Leeds United and Southampton, who are also vying for promotion. This makes the January window particularly important for the Foxes.
In addition to a center-back, they could also benefit from adding a full-back and a striker to their squad. However, their focus on strengthening the center-back department could potentially spell trouble for Souttar, who may find himself with limited playing time if Quansah joins the team. If this happens, it would not be surprising for Souttar to seek a transfer to revive his career.
The arrival of Quansah could create the opportunity for Souttar to secure his exit from Leicester.
