Debuts expected for young prospects after Leicester announcement | OneFootball

Leicester City supporters are currently looking for some hope to cling onto at the end of a particularly troubling Premier League season. A return to the Championship will be confirmed for the Foxes this weekend or the next, unfortunately. A few bright spots have surprisingly emerged from none other than stumbling LCFC manager Ruud van Nistelrooy.

The hope is that further young Leicester starlets shall be given debuts as the campaign's culmination approaches. In fact, that scenario is now fully expected after the latest announcement from the former temporary Manchester United head coach and full-time goalscorer. Van Nistelrooy was, in fact, noted for bringing through notable players of great talent at PSV Eindhoven.

With the east Midlands club almost certainly down, this is an ideal time to blood in new City professionals. Following the first senior team appearances for the electric Jeremy Monga and the impressive Jake Evans, which young King Power footballers are next up? We investigate.

Someone to build around at Leicester City?

Stephy Mavididi is one of Leicester's most underrated squad members in my opinion. The determination and quality shown by the winger versus Brighton & Hove Albion are testament to that. He should have featured as a consistent starter under RvN.

It may surprise some people to know that ex-Leicester coach Mike Stowell believes Mavididi should be the focal point of the side in the Championship. But Mavididi is 26-year-old. So which young Foxes should we look out for?

There's actually a promising procession of youthful ballers waiting to show what they are made of at City. And van Nistelrooy is ready to move Leicester's status quo in preparation for the coming years.
