Things to know about Leicester transfer target Lilian Brassier | OneFootball

Leicester City transfer talk is evidently currently in a high gear. That's because the chance for Premier League clubs to make signings and to loan and sell players is about to arrive. In January, roughly the midway point of the season, the transfer market opens again. Therefore every EPL team is linked with various signings; many are realistic. Some connections, though, are just absolute fabrication; something that should be stopped or regulated far more rigidly.

Anyway, the Foxes are after some attacking reinforcements. As you can imagine, a few of those types of professionals, young and old, have been connected with King Power outfit. The latest footballer we wrote about who might come to Leicester was called Chancel Mbemba.At the moment, Mbemba (and his wage packet) is described as a "burden" for current side Marseille. Sometimes there are undervalued gems to discover amongst these divisions such as Ligue 1. But I am dubious over this particular one.

This French squad reportedly also contains further unwanted options City are sniffing around. The east Midlanders are said to be interested in Lilian Brassier too, who is actually on loan from Brest. He also has the opportunity to exit the Velodrome after uneven form and not being favoured. What do we know about the 25-year-old? Is he a good option for LCFC? And is the acquisition plausible?

Plucky Leicester City entertain awful Manchester City

It is not often, if at all, that Foxes of Leicester use an adjective such as "awful" or terrible when speaking on Pep Guardiola's Man City. But, for their lofty standards, they've been worse than even that appraisal. If Leicester ever have a decent chance to show up the modern City (as they've actually done before at Etihad Stadium), surely it is in Sunday's game.
