The Foxes have been referred to an independent commission by the Premier League, as per ESPN, for alleged breaches of the league’s spending rules.
The EFL initially said that they would hand down any punishment from the Premier League to the former top flight Champions while they were in the second tier, but they later changed their position, stating that they didn’t have the powers to do so, based on the current regulations, as per ESPN.
Leicester will still need to try and get some deals done and some of their top players, including Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, have attracted the attention of some top sides, including Tottenham Hotspur, Brighton, and Newcastle United.
Football Insider reported, in January, that Leicester wanted in excess of £40 million for the midfielder in the winter window. They now believe that he could be got for as little as £30 million.
Leicester won’t want to let go of players like him, but there are three squad members who should be looking to get a move in the summer.
For an international goalkeeper, Danny Ward has had a difficult time of it. From first choice in the Premier League, a season ago, to third string in the Championship; it has been a mighty fall from grace for the Welshman.
He was linked with a move away from the King Power in January, with Cardiff City and Sheffield United both said to be interested in him, according to journalist Alan Nixon, via his Patreon, but both clubs decided against a move for the 30-year-old.
Ward hasn’t played a single minute for his club in senior matches this season. He’ll want to make sure his place in theWales starting XI is certain, and his national team boss, Rob Page, blamed politics for the keeper’s failed winter moves.
To make sure that position is his, he has to play regular, first team football, and not just roll out with the reserves every now and then. Leaving the King Power is the only way for him to do that.
