Leicester City is in a tight Championship title race with Ipswich Town, holding a three-point lead at the top of the table. However, as they focus on their title pursuit, they must also turn their attention to contract negotiations.
With eight players approaching the end of their contracts, including key players like Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho, January brings a fresh set of challenges for the club. Speculation surrounds the future of midfielder Wilfred Ndidi, who has been a crucial player for Leicester City this season.
Another player in a similar contract situation is Kelechi Iheanacho, who has attracted interest from the Premier League. Meanwhile, Jannik Vestergaard has become an essential player under manager Enzo Maresca, making him a priority for a new deal.
However, veterans like Mark Albrighton and Alex Smithies, as well as Dennis Praet and Wanya Marcal, could be on their way out as they have struggled to secure regular playing time this season. Lastly, the club also faces a decision regarding the future of legendary striker Jamie Vardy, as interest from Saudi Arabian clubs adds further complexity to their contract decisions.
