Three free agents Leicester City could sign for Russell Martin’s squad depth | OneFootball

Leicester City overhauled Russell Martin's squad with 14 summer signings for League One. After seven games they are 14th, three points off the play-offs. According to LeicesterMercury.co.uk, with only 15 of a possible 25 registered, free agents remain an option.

Since the window shut four weeks ago, Dai Cornell arrived on a free after Jakub Stolarczyk’s ACL ruled him out for the season. John Lundstram has strengthened midfield, Wout Faes has departed to Shabab Al-Ahli.

Centre-back may not be a priority with four options, yet 31-year-old Adam Webster is available after leaving Brighton. He missed last season with a pre-season knee injury and has been linked with Sheffield United. He could add experience, though a fifth defender seems unnecessary.

Versatile winger Solly March, 31, ended a 14-year Brighton stay in the summer and is still without a club. Primarily a right winger, he has been linked with West Ham and Portsmouth. Injuries carry risk, but in League One he would stand out. Martin’s Brighton connections have already yielded loans for Tommy Watson, Harry Howell and Kamari Doyle.

Greg Docherty, linked with Leicester in the summer, is a free agent after leaving Charlton Athletic following the window. The 30-year-old made 39 Championship appearances last season and captained at the Valley, having also played for Rangers, Hull, Shrewsbury and Hibernian. An experienced attacking midfielder could complement City’s youthful options.
