Leicester City are supposedly pursuing a few standout signings for the upcoming season. These include potential respective transfers in the midfield and wing departments. Will Matt O’Riley, Richard Rios or Matias Soule make their way to King Power Stadium this offseason?
And we take a look at the report from the Foxes’ friendly versus Villarreal. The practice match took place on Saturday afternoon in Camille Fournier Stadium, France. The east Midlands outfit are currently involved in a training camp in Evian-les-Bains. Who scored and which players got the assists, if any, as Leicester City defeat Villarreal by two goals to one.
Triple transfer pursuit should tickle Foxes fans’ fancy
In spite of former Leicester manager Enzo Maresca leaving Leicestershire for west London with Chelsea Football Club, there is an air of positive anticipation around the Blue Army. Even the departure of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall hasn’t dampened the slight optimism of the newly promoted Premier league team.
Why is there decent morale among some of the more plugged-in LCFC supporters among us? Well, the Foxes are linked with a host of possible signings. And these aren’t all potential low-key additions, ones for the future and unknown promising gems. Oh no.
Leicester are actually connected with some more established senior professionals. Or, at the very least on this scale of of hopefulness, City are mentioned with certain big six targets. LCFC are not usually talked about with regard to the more prominent of prospects.

Richard Rios
South American journalist Nicola Parcerias has weighed in on Leicester and Everton’s interest in Rios. The Colombia star is apparently the subject of bids from Steve Cooper’s side and the Toffees.
However, Leicester Mercury has shed some light on the issue. Rios’s Brazilian club, Palmeiras, are said to be unwilling to part with the central midfielder. But we all know that money talks – especially in football.
Matias Soule and Matt O’Riley
Argentine Soule is a wanted man; City are confirmed admirers. The English top-flight team are meant to have made an improved offer for Juventus’ winger.
