Leicester City block defender’s exit from the club

The transfer window has not yet closed in Turkey and many of the country’s clubs are still sniffing around England for last-minute deals.

One player who is a subject of interest is Leicester City’s Caglar Soyuncu, who has moved to a club blocked by the Foxes, according to Football Insider.

Besiktas and Galatasaray were approached to sign the Turkish international before deadline day, but Leicester want to keep the 26-year-old as the club look to avoid a relegation battle this season.

Brendan Rodgers’ side are currently bottom of the Premier League and are yet to win a game so far this campaign.

Leicester spent money on just one signing this summer, recruiting defender Wout Faes from Reims for a fee of £15m, Sky Sports reports.

The Foxes also lost their best centre-back, Wesley Fofana, to Chelsea and will therefore need all the help they can get in that area of ​​the pitch to stay on their feet.

Soyuncu has yet to appear in the Premier League for Leicester this term and is firmly in the pecking order under Rodgers. The centre-back was dropped from the matchday squad entirely for last weekend’s loss to Brighton.

The Turkish international is likely to want to leave the club at the moment, but due to the club’s circumstances that is not possible.
