We are still a few months away from the January transfer window opening. The list of possible signings and Leicester targets are growing as we build it up and consider the number of candidates suggested. So far we do not rate the rumours that are as hot, but of course an interesting list to look at.
The latest player to be mentioned is Genoa left back prospect Andrea Cambiaso. The player who has earlier been seen on loan at other clubs has made his big entrance in the Serie A this season. He has earlier been loaned out to other lower league clubs and last season spent time at Empoli.

Never miss out on his daily tweets and you will also find a good update on moves possibly to happen with Jesse Lingard and Dele Alli both spoken about this weekend. Both players have earlier been linked with Leicester as possible targets if James Maddison was leaving the club, with Maddison still at Leicester, those two would clearly be out of the picture.
We did mention Bodo Glimt’s young captain Patrick Berg as a possible target, but also left back Fredrik Bjørkan should be looked at with an impressive display in both games v. Roma (6-1)(2-2) he does have something bring to the table. Another Norwegian that has earlier been linked with Leicester is Mathias Normann who at the moment play for Norwich.
We do feel that Leicester will enter the transfer market in January if they decide to sell, if not we will not see any moves at all. There are too many players at the club allready, and with James Justin and possibly Wesley Fofana returning from injury, you have two fantastic additions to the squad.

He knows that Leicester would love to have him to stay but without Europe next season and possibly missing the Champions League spots, it might be goodbye to Youri Tielemans, but with it, he might consider to stay.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall did get to the field in the game v. Spartak Moscow but so far his chances has been very limited, Nampalys Mendy and Hamza Choudhury are also looking for more game time. There could be loans or even sales in January, but we do feel that Brendan Rodgers still do feel he needs the services.
The players that are currently out on loan, Daniel Iversen, George Hirst, Tyrese Shade and Khanya Leshabela are not likely to return with mixed emotions for those four at their current place. Hirst is struggling a bit at Portsmouth, no goals yet in his 10 league appearances for Portsmouth. Leshabela has not yet been much involved at Shrewsbury and might return for U.23 duties in January. Shade is holding a place in the Walsall team, but they are struggling in the middle of League Two.
