“SHOCKING Leicester City Exodus: Gary Lineker’s Explosive Defense of Sacked Manager – Where Are the 16 Banished Players NOW?!”

Leicester City may have trimmed their squad during the summer, but Marti Cifuentes is still managing a large group of 31 players.

Sixteen departures were sanctioned through sales, loans, and free transfers, with mixed fortunes for those who moved on.

Jamie Vardy

The club’s iconic striker surprised many by joining newly promoted Serie A side Cremonese. His unveiling at a violin museum grabbed headlines, and he is expected to debut against Verona.

Danny Ward

Ward returned to boyhood club Wrexham as their first-choice goalkeeper but suffered a serious elbow injury. He is sidelined for months and has been omitted from the squad list for the first half of the season.

Daniel Iversen

Back at Preston, Iversen immediately reclaimed the number one spot, impressing with key saves, including against his former side Leicester. His return has boosted North End’s strong start.

Henry Cartwright

The 20-year-old midfielder is thriving on loan at Falkirk. He has featured regularly, earning man-of-the-match honours in a victory over Aberdeen.

Tom Wilson-Brown

The young defender has become a mainstay at Swindon in League Two, helping them climb to second place. His versatility in defence is proving invaluable.

Conor Coady

Now at Wrexham alongside other ex-Leicester players, Coady has been ever-present in defence. Though the club’s ambitions remain unclear, he looks set to play a central role.

Wilfred Ndidi

Ndidi joined Besiktas, but early turbulence followed. The sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Europa Conference League elimination mean no European football. Despite starting regularly, results have been poor.

Mads Hermansen

West Ham’s new keeper had a rocky start, conceding eight goals in his first two games. Gary Lineker defended him publicly, and a clean sheet against Nottingham Forest should help his confidence.

Jayden Joseph

On loan at Tranmere, the teenage full-back has seen limited action, making two substitute appearances in defeats. He will be eager for more opportunities.

Kasey McAteer

His £14m move to Ipswich raised eyebrows. So far, he has two appearances under his belt, with manager Kieran McKenna convinced of his long-term potential.

James Justin

Now with Leeds, Justin debuted in a draw against Newcastle. Primarily a back-up option across the full-back roles, he hopes to push for starts.

Will Alves

The young attacker joined Huddersfield on deadline day and made an instant impact, scoring with his first touch as a substitute. His versatility could earn him regular starts.

Bilal El Khannouss

The Moroccan moved to Stuttgart with a compulsory purchase clause worth around £26m. Expectations are high, and he may debut soon.

Nathan Opoku

Recovering from a leg break, Opoku impressed immediately at Newport, scoring and assisting within 25 minutes of his loan debut.

Woyo Coulibaly

The full-back joined Sassuolo, but with the club bottom of Serie A after two defeats, he awaits his competitive debut.

Sammy Braybrooke

On loan at Newport, Braybrooke earned praise for his technical quality, playing over 80 minutes in his debut. Consistent performances could pave a route back into Leicester’s plans.
