Leicester tied down Kamal Sowah long term future last summer, with the player agreeing to sign a contract for the forthcoming seasons. He has been with OH Leuven over a number of years, and last season having a great experience showing his skills and how he can progress taking the next hurdles.
Kamal Sowah has been with Leicester since the start of the pre-season and it looks more than likely that he will be a player that Brendan Rodgers is eager to see if can cope with PL action as the Ghana born attacking midfielder fits into this project.

Kamal has seen a number of Leicester players come and go during his time with OH Leuven and played with Kapustka, King, Eppiah, Moore, Benkovic and Hirst who all have been over to Belgium to gain experience, even Nigel Pearson had a period in charge and had Sowah under his wings.
He has scored 11 goals in 66 league gamse and last season spent in the top flight helping the Belgians to survive and ending in an impressive 11th position, with Sowah playing 34 games and scoring 8 goals. A great experience for the 21 year old left footed Ghana international to be.

There are still a lot of questions regarding next season and still a bit of work to be done before we see the pattern of a team and a squad, but with Sowah in full action, you can expect at least that Dennis Praet might be getting his wish to leave, we will wait and see.
