“Marti Cifuentes Drops BOMBSHELL on Abdul Fatawu and Harry Winks’ SHOCKING Leicester City Exit Drama!”

Martí Cifuentes has inherited a Leicester City squad brimming with talent, but as the club has learned before in the Championship, such quality comes with a risk — the danger of losing key players to wealthier sides.

So far this summer, Leicester have already generated close to £30 million through the departures of Mads Hermansen, Wilfred Ndidi, and Conor Coady.

However, with the transfer window still open, further outgoings remain a real possibility and could even be necessary to balance finances and reshape the squad.

Among those attracting strong interest are Abdul Fatawu, Bilal El Khannouss, Harry Winks, and James Justin, who have all been linked with potential exits in the final days of the market. On the arrivals front, business has been quiet.

The Foxes have made just one addition — veteran goalkeeper Asmir Begović, signed as a free agent — and Cifuentes may be forced to sell before he can reinforce in other areas.

Following Saturday’s 2-1 defeat to Preston North End, Leicester’s first league loss under Cifuentes, speculation grew that some players might already be looking beyond the club.

Yet the Spaniard was quick to play down such concerns, insisting the professionalism within his squad has not wavered.

Speaking to the Leicester Mercury, he explained: “It’s the reality for all clubs across the country. The players’ mindset is very clear — everyone wants to perform well.

As professionals, there is pride in wearing this shirt. We’re trying to build something, and everybody knows we are in a transition.

Hopefully, it finishes soon so we can fully focus on the future. For now, the market is open, and that’s part of football.

I cannot fault the commitment or professionalism of any player in training or on the pitch.”

Even so, the situation leaves Leicester caught in a delicate balancing act. Should they sanction sales, they risk losing core players with only two weeks left to find replacements — potentially weakening the squad.

Conversely, holding onto assets could limit Cifuentes’ ability to bring in fresh signings that better align with his tactical vision.

The club must now tread carefully, weighing which players could be sacrificed without severely damaging their promotion push, and identifying positions where reinforcements are most urgent.

Some departures might generate useful funds, but others could leave gaping holes that money alone cannot instantly fix.

In short, Leicester’s hierarchy faces a crucial fortnight in the market. Their decisions will shape not only Cifuentes’ first campaign in charge but also the club’s chances of bouncing back quickly to the Premier League.
