Club ‘estabilished contacts’ to sign Leicester City player – Negotiations open for his departure

It seems Victor Kristiansen could be the next player to leave Leicester City this summer.

According to Sky Sport, via TuttoMercatoWeb, Bologna are now interested in signing the 20-year-old.

It’s said the Serie A side established the ‘first contacts’ with Leicester City on Saturday, and opened negotiations to get the transfer done.

The report claims that Kristiansen is actually also wanted by Lazio, so there may be a little Italian competition to get him signed in this window.

It’s been only eight months since the left-back joined Leicester City, as he was signed from Danish side FC Copenhagen in a €14m deal.

Despite the short time to adapt, he was still able to make 14 appearances for the Foxes, most of them as a starter.

Now it remains to be seen whether Bologna and Lazio want the player signed on a loan deal or a permanent transfer.

Since the relegation to the Championship, Leicester City already confirmed the departures of James Maddison, Harvey Barnes, George Hirst, Youri Tielemans, Caglar Soyuncu, Daniel Amartey, Ayoze Perez, Johnny Evans, Nampalys Mendy and Ryan Bertrand.
