Leicester City defender Çağlar Söyüncü’s long-term future seems to be away from the King Power Stadium

The Turkey international has made two appearances in all competitions this season and hasn’t featured for the Foxes since their 1-0 defeat to Manchester City last month.

He has over six months left on his contract. This, coupled with his failure to convince Brendan Rodgers could see Leicester let go of him at the end of this term.

The 26-year-old’s situation with the Premier League side has caught Beşiktaş’s attention, as per Fanatik. The Black Eagles, who want to strengthen the centre-back position in the winter market, have Rodgers’ man on their radar.

It’s suggested Leicester will release Söyüncü after his contract with them runs down and his plan is to then join a ‘European giant’.

The Süper Lig side don’t fit this bill. Therefore, they ‘will offer’ him a short-term deal in January. Beşiktaş’ idea is to sign Söyüncü on loan deal until the end of this season so that he can be allowed to execute his plan to get a move to a top club next summer.

Fanatik doesn’t mention whether Söyüncü and/or Leicester are open to the loan transfer in January.
