Leicester City now set to miss out on free agent Kieran Dewsbury-Hall replacement
After Matias Soule, Leicester City are set to miss out on another transfer target.
Steve Cooper has already lost out on transfer target Matias Soule, with the Argentinian winger expressing his interest to join Serie A club Roma.
However, his top priority continues to be his pursuit for a Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall replacement.
The midfielder moved on to Chelsea following a brilliant season in the Championship, where he achieved 26 goal contributions in the 2023/24 campaign.
Cooper attempted to lure Dewsbury-Hall into staying for the 2024/25 Premier League campaign after he was appointed as manager, however the midfielder was adamant that he wanted to join back up with former Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca at Chelsea.
Celtic midfielder Matt O’Riley has been targeted by Cooper as an adequate replacement, however the Danish international has been given a hefty £50m price-tag.
Cooper had sourced a cheaper alternative following his release, however he is now set to sign for a Championship club.
