The versatile 23-year-old is seen as surplus to requirements at Arsenal and is expected to leave in the ongoing transfer window
Former Leicester City defender Steve Howey believes there is no way Ainsley Maitland-Niles can play in the team, if he joins them, ahead of Nigeria international Wilfred Ndidi.
The Arsenal midfielder is seen as surplus to requirements for the Mikel Arteta-led charges, and last season he served West Bromwich Albion albeit on loan. However, he could not save the Baggies from heading to the Championship.
Howey believes if the Foxes sign Maitland-Niles, he will not be the first choice, especially in midfield.
