Leicester City underwent a major overhaul in the transfer window, bidding farewell to 16 players, with notable departures including Mads Hermansen and Bilal El Khannouss. Manager Marti Cifuentes replaced star striker Jamie Vardy with Julian Carranza and brought in promising talent on loan like Jordan James and Aaron Ramsey. Additionally, two goalkeepers were added on free transfers.
Despite the Turkish Super Lig’s looming transfer deadline, speculation surrounds the potential exit of players like Wout Faes. However, the likelihood of key players Victor Kristiansen, Faes, and Patson Daka leaving seems slim, according to transfer expert Graeme Bailey. Daka had earlier rejected bids, Faes faced pressure to leave from Belgium’s coach, and Kristiansen remains a valuable asset.
Bailey expressed doubts regarding any of the trio finding a new club, disappointing Leicester’s hopes of offloading them. The prospects for Kristiansen, Faes, and Daka being pivotal in the Championship appear challenging at present.
While Faes and Daka have seen game time, Kristiansen remains sidelined under Cifuentes. The uncertainty lingers over Kristiansen’s future, leaving his role in the team unclear until January.
