ImageHarry Souttar looks to be on his way out of Leicester, not permanently, but on loan. The Australian international was involved in the first two pre-season games vs. Villareal and Shrewsbury, but not in the squad for the game tonight vs. Palermo.

We believe a move to another destination will happen in the next couple of days and that a medical is planned, but still we do not have a clear message on where he will be heading, with Sheffield United and his former club Stoke, being mentioned as front runners.

Leicester manager Steve Cooper do have a lot of options in this area, and even with Wout Faes being absent from the squad today, Harry Souttar were not included, and certainly a clear indication that the player will be leaving

Leicester are currently working on a number of different options to bring in new players as the defeat today against a Serie B outfit, looks to give Steve Cooper doubts about his depth in certain areas as he needs to balance it up and get the players in that he needs to get on with his special fight for survival.Image

Ben Nelson also looks to be heading for a new destination as well, being surplus when Wout Faes returns as he and Harry Souttar would look 5th or 6th choice behind Coady, Vestergaard, Okoli and Faes.

We do believe Steve Cooper will not keep his 5th and 6th alternative central defender at the club, when also having Wilfred Ndidi and Hamza Choudhury around, who also can cover in that area if it was to be trouble with Coady, Vestergaard, Faes or Okoli.
