It’s getting to that point of the transfer window where the rumours are heating up and Leicester City have joined the party.

The Foxes really need to get a move on this month as so far, only one player has joined Leicester.

Woyo Coulibaly signed last week and has been training with the first-team ahead of a potential debut against Tottenham Hotspur.

In the meantime we are still waiting for confirmation of Tom Cannon’s move to Sheffield United, which could add extra money to the bank loan taken out by Leicester earlier this week.

More names have been linked with a move to the King Power Stadium so, with that, here is the latest Leicester City transfer roundup.

A centre-back is one of three positions Leicester want to strengthen this window and Strahinja Pavlovic certainly fits that criteria.

The Serbia international, who has been compared to the nation’s legendary defender Nemanja Vidic, only joined AC Milan in the summer but has played just 15 times in all competitions.

Pavlovic is a regular at national level and the defender was praised for keeping Lamine Yamal quiet at Euro 2024.

A deal may be hard to do, but a player of his calibre would be a huge boost and upgrade in quality.

Leicester need ready-made players for the first team now, but that hasn’t stopped them from casting one eye towards the future.

Evan Mooney is wanted by the Foxes, with the 17-year-old also attracting interest from fellow Premier League clubs Arsenal and Newcastle United.

Mooney only made his professional debut for Scottish Premiership club St Mirren in October and has less than 10 senior appearances in his career, scoring once in a 3-2 win against St Johnstone.
