Leicester City was linked to a move for the former captain of Burnley Josh Brownhill.
The 29 -year -old is currently a free agent, and has also been linked to clubs like West Ham United. It will be interesting to see if Leicester City can conclude the agreement.
They would have approached the player with a contract proposal, according to Fourfourtwo. It remains to be seen if the player is ready to join them. Leicester will be desperate to recover promotion at the Premier League, and they will try to do well in the championship next season. Brown Hill could prove to be a quality edition for them.
He managed to score 18 goals and provide six assists to the championship last season, and sign a player of his quality on a free transfer could be a master stroke.
Josh Brownhill would be a great addition
The Sky Sports planter, Lee Hendrie, urged Leicester City to sign the former Burnley star. He thinks that Brownhill would not only be a quality player for foxes, but he would also be one of the leaders of the locker room.
“I think Josh Brownhill would be a fantastic signature for Leicester,” said Hendrie on FLW. “I think you just have to look at the figures he put in the championship and it says a lot.
“I think when a sniffing high -level club, you know the player’s caliber you bring.
“Josh is also a strong leader, and one might think that it is a massive signature for them.
“I think that overall, where they are at that time, losing a few great players, you need someone who will come and be a bit of a leader in the locker room.
“With players like Jamie Vardy and Conor Coady leaving the club, it is important to replace this. I think it would be a real big coup for Leicester City.”
Can foxes convince Brownhill?
He knows what it takes to compete at a high level in a coherent way, and he could help Leicester City get a promotion next season. It remains to be seen if all parties can reach an agreement.
The opportunity to join clubs like West Ham will also be very exciting for the midfielder. He could prefer to go to the elite at this stage of his career. It will be interesting to see if the London club presents itself with an offer for it.
