Leicester City set to be involved in irritating negotiations over multi-million pound exit

The full-back is a wanted man but Leicester may have to budge on their terms to get rid of him

Leicester City are expected to be involved in negotiations with Bologna over full-back Victor Kristiansen, who joined the Italian side in the summer on loan and is wanted by them on a permanent basis.

The Foxes are in a desperate need to get rid of players before July, so they can balance their profits and losses books to avoid a further points deduction.

They were charged by the Premier League with breaching the Profit and Sustainability rules of the competition in the 2022/23 campaign. As a result of this charge, it is expected that Leicester will start next season, in which they will be a top flight side again, with a points deduction.

One of the players that could leave before the end of June, in order to put the club in a better financial position, is Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.

The star of the team has contributed a combined 26 goals and assists for the team in the Championship this season, but interest from Brighton & Hove Albion, Tottenham Hotspur and Brentford, as per Football Insider, plus their poor fiscal state, could force them into selling the 25-year-old.

The club’s Players’ Player of the Year award winner has said that he doesn’t want to leave the club.

Another player who the club could make money from is Kristiansen, but his temporary side are looking to drive the price of him down.

Bologna want Victor Kristiansen at a discount

The left-back joined Leicester in January last year for an up-front fee of £12 million from Copenhagen. He wasn’t part of Enzo Maresca’s plan for his first campaign in charge of the team, and he was sent out to Bologna on loan.

He has impressed with the Italian side, playing over 70 minutes per game, and he has registered three assists in 29 appearances.
