Arriving at the King Power Stadium with little fanfare, unlike Youri Tielemans, Dennis Praet has quietly seen his importance in Brendan Rodgers’ plans grow over the past year and a bit.
Starting around three quarters of the games so far in the Premier League for Leicester City, the midfielder has contributed with a goal and an assist along the way.
This all suggests he isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, yet Fiorentina remain keen on his services, according to La Nazione.
The Italian newspaper explain the Serie A side are looking for a regista, and while they are waiting to see what takes place between Arsenal and Torino regarding Lucas Torreira, they are also ‘evaluating any movement on the future of Praet, under contract at Leicester’.
There’s no mention of how much a potential move would cost, but it can be expected to be far more than the £17m Rodgers and co. paid for him in the first place, which would likely be out of Fiorentina’s reach.
Tihs means the only way they could bring him to Florence would be via loan, and we can’t see Leicester agreeing to that anytime soon, not when it comes to a player who has started eight of the last 11 league games.
