Leicester City are beginning to assess options that could strengthen their squad for the second half of the campaign as they make plans for the January transfer window. One name that has recently emerged is Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford, and according to a Sky Sports pundit, his arrival at the King Power Stadium would represent a major coup for the Foxes. The pundit suggested that if Leicester could convince City to part with Trafford, it would be a significant statement of intent.
He's started the season well, he's the kind of player you can see one of those Premier League clubs maybe taking him. The position he plays and the way he's started, you know he's going to be a real big player for Leicester. So they [Leicester] will really have to brace themselves for that because I think that will definitely happen if he continues to have this great form.
Miquel, 41, helped Leicester finish 10th in the WSL last season - their highest ever placing - with 20 points from 22 games, and 10 points clear of relegated Crystal Palace. She won five of her 22 league matches, and secured two more points than in the 2023-24 season. The club confirmed Miquel's assistant Amaury Messuwe will also leave with immediate effect but are yet to announce a replacement, with Leicester opening their WSL season against Manchester United on 7 September.
AC Milan are reportedly showing a strong interest in a late potential summer transfer window move for Leicester City centre-back Caleb Okoli. The 24-year-old only joined Leicester just over a year ago, and has become an important member of the Foxes' first-team in that time. Still, it seems Okoli is now firmly on Milan's radar as they look for defensive reinforcements towards the end of the summer.
Leeds have signed Leicester City defender James Justin in a deal worth 10m. The full-back moves to Elland Road on a four-year contract and becomes the club's 10th summer signing. Leeds will pay Leicester 8m, with 2m in add-ons, for the 27-year-old. Justin is not expected to be available for Tuesday's Carabao Cup second-round tie at Sheffield Wednesday, with Leeds hosting Newcastle in their next Premier League game on Saturday.
I'd only cautioned two Leicester players that whole season because I found the Leicester boys really good crack, and because they were good guys, they probably got away with a bit because of the fine margins. Do you know what I mean?
