Leicester City’s January transfer priorities, Vestergaard’s reaction, and latest injury updates
Leicester City updates from LeicestershireLive as Steve Cooper gears up to lead the Foxes against Crystal Palace
Over the summer, Leicester City bid farewell to 10 players who were either sold, released, loaned out, or returned to their parent clubs.
In response, the club brought in nine new signings and promoted one young player to the first team.
This leaves Steve Cooper with the same number of players as his predecessor, Enzo Maresca.
But how balanced is the squad? Do the 29 players available to the new manager provide Leicester City with adequate coverage across all areas of the pitch?
Vestergaard Ready for the Challenge
Jannik Vestergaard says he “feels better than ever” as he prepares to compete for a spot in Leicester City’s starting lineup this weekend.
The Danish defender was benched during the 2-1 loss to Aston Villa, with manager Steve Cooper opting to give a Premier League debut to £15m summer signing Caleb Okoli.
It was the first time since last season that Vestergaard had been available for a league game and was not in the starting 11.
Speaking to Danish media ahead of this Saturday’s match at Selhurst Park, Vestergaard expressed confidence in his fitness and readiness to play.
