Leicester City have made a steady start to life back in the Championship on the pitch, as they have secured two victories from their opening three league fixtures.
The Foxes will have been disappointed by their defeat to Preston North End in the Championship; however, they will be confident they can carry on their winning form on Friday night against Birmingham City, as the stats point to them being obvious winners.
Leicester City were handed a boost on the future of Bilal El Khannouss, as his deal away from the club fell through, and it looks like he is set to remain at the club.
The club have now been linked with signing Jonas Omlin from Bundesliga club Borussia Monchengladbach, with Leicester making a loan offer for the goalkeeper.
However, the Foxes may be set to lose Wout Faes to another Bundesliga club this summer.
Leicester City in ‘talks’ with Wolfsburg about Wout Faes
It has been reported by Florian Plettenberg that VfL Wolfsburg are exploring a deal to sign Wout Faes.
The Belgian international has been rumoured over the past couple of weeks in the summer transfer window to be set for an exit from the club.
It is understood that there is no agreement as of yet over a deal for the 27-year-old to leave Leicester City; however, talks between the former Premier League champions and the German giants are ongoing.
Should a deal go ahead, the Foxes may believe that a replacement coming through the door at the club is required to replace the international pedigree they would be losing to Wolfsburg.
Brendan Rodgers was a huge fan of Wout Faes
It will come as no surprise to anybody that the man who brought Wout Faes to Leicester City, Brendan Rodgers, is a fan of the central defender.
While the Belgian defender has made some notable and high-profile mistakes, the 27-year-old has been ever-present in the Leicester side since making the move to the Midlands.
Rodgers was full of praise for the defender with Sky Sports, having previously said: “He plays as if he’s much older. He knows football – and having guys in your backline that know the game makes a huge difference.
“He’s well-educated in football; you can see that in how he plays, and his game is suited to the Premier League. He’s aggressive for us.
“The types of defenders I like – he defends forward, he presses the game well, he’s good when it comes into the box, he gets his head on it, and he can play football. He’s done very, very well, and I’ve been really pleased with his start.”
