Boss opens summer transfer in Leicester City

Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl has revealed how selling Jannik Vestergaard to Leicester City helped him reshape his Saints roster.

Vestergaard to City and Danny Ings to Aston Villa sales totaled £ 40million last month, some of which the Saints reinvested to create depth rather than like-for-like replacements.

It enabled them to include Adam Armstrong, Romain Perraud, Lyanco, Valentino Livramento and Thierry Small and complete Theo Walcott’s permanent signing during the summer transfer window.

City were forced to switch for the Danish international after central defender Wesley Fofana broke his fibula in the club’s final friendly against Villarreal.

Steve Bruce makes Leicester City transfer entry

Newcastle United manager Steve Bruce has admitted that Leicester City midfielder Hamza Choudhury was “one of the few” who saw the Magpies as summer transfer targets.

Choudhury was due to complete a loan move to Tyneside – a re-run of an earlier attempt in January – but Leicester and Newcastle could not agree on the terms of the move.

The discussions lasted late into the deadline when both sides tried to seal a deal, but neither side was willing to deviate from their expectations.

City reportedly tried to compromise Choudhury’s wages and a loan fee to get the move across the line, but a deal never came off.

That’s what Bruce told reporters.
