Once again left on the bench at Leicester City, it seems Islam Slimani has had enough of his situation at King Power Stadium.
A week or so ago, the talk coming out of the Algerian press suggested the striker was ‘seriously thinking about leaving’, but things haven’t improved and now he wants out.
This is what L’Expression are saying on Tuesday, not holding back with their article headline ‘Islam Slimani wants to leave this winter’.
Back with his national team after being left out during the last international break, the 29-year-old will be looking forward to getting some game time under his belt since he isn’t getting any under Claude Puel.
With both Crystal Palace in the Premier League and Rennes in Ligue 1 said to be interested in his services, Slimani could have an exit route already planned.
The problem is, will Leicester want to let him go, and if they do, will they allow it be on loan, as the French side certainly do not have the financial power to help the Foxes recoup their initial expenditure.
One to follow over the coming months.
