With a record points tally firmly in sight, the board should perhaps cast one eye ahead to the summer and prepare for what is looking like a cast-iron Premier League return.
The likes of Stephy Mavididi, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Mads Hermansen and Kasey McAteer provide Maresca with an exciting core, with new signings surely arriving to bolster their top-flight aspirations.
However, with six players out of contract, there could be some high-profile exits from the King Power.
Here we take a look at the SIX players whose contracts conclude in the summer of 2024.
A Leicester City legend could be set to depart in just a matter of months.
There’s no doubting Jamie Vardy’s status in the East Midlands. The 37-year-old’s 136 Premier League goals put him alongside some all-time greats (Transfermarkt).
“You are as old as you feel, how your legs feel, and I make sure I look after myself and make sure I recover right and do extra when I’m at home. So as long as I keep doing that, I’ll keep feeling fresh.”
Despite Vardy’s impressive form, with his contract expiring in the summer and Leicester on course to return to the Premier League, an extension seems unlikely.
2Wilfred N’didi
Nigerian midfielder Wilfred N’didi is another player who could be set for pastures new.
The 27-year-old signed for Leicester in 2017, penning a six-year contract extension a year after his arrival. With the midfielder yet to commit his long-term future to The Foxes, a summer departure is certainly on the cards.
