Leicester City Transfers 2024/22
Leicester City had an impressive 2024/21 season. After marginally missing out on a Champions League spot as they finished fifth, the foxes went on to win FA Cup and Community Shield. Brendan Rogers has set his goals and has made the required moves. Here are all the transactions Leicester City made in the current Summer Transfer Window.
Zambian forward Patson Daka has joined the foxes from R B Salzburg. He has signed a contract of five years with the club.
Boubakary Soumaré was Leicester’s second signing of the season. The midfielder has joined the club from Ligue 1 champions Lille.
Veteran left-back Ryan Bertrand made the switch from Southampton to Leicester and became the club’s third signing.
Another player to take the Southampton to Leicester route is Jannik Vestergaard. The Danish international will be a valuable addition to Leicester’s defence.
In 2015/16, Wes Morgan, Leicester’s Premier League lifting captain, retired from the club ahead of the new season. Christian Fuchs left the foxes after six years to join MLS club Charlotte FC.
