Patson Daka looks set to join Bournemouth with reports suggesting a move to the Premier League is close.
Daka hasn’t featured in the last two matchday squads for Leicester with Enzo Maresca admitting certain players are nearing the exit.
The Zambian has been described has ‘available’ with a move needing to be completed before next week’s deadline day.
Everton have tried to sign Daka this summer but a fee could not be agreed.
It is clear therefore that the Foxes have a price and will let him go if that is matched.
The Cherries are reportedly willing to meet the price set out by Leicester in order to bring the striker to the Vitality.
It is said to be unclear how much City may demand for the forward they paid a fee in the region of £30 million for in 2021.
Nine Premier League goals for the Foxes has seen plenty of interest from the Premier League and Ligue 1.
It seems quite clear that Daka will be leaving the club.
With Kelechi Iheanacho and Jamie Vardy at the club and playing matches so far this season there isn’t a definite need for the Zambian to stay.
In saying this, he could tear up the Championship and re-find the form that convinced Brendan Rodgers to sign him.
With his pace, power and finishing ability, he could be the player that fires Leicester back to the Premier League.
On the flip side, the sale of the striker for what is likely to over £15 million, that could see the Foxes bring in a new young striker.
The opportunity for a youthful striker to learn from experienced goal scorers like Vardy and Iheanacho could be invaluable.
Which ever way this goes, stay or go, there is beneficial sides to both sides of the story.
