Former Leicester Captain Steve Walsh Urges Foxes to Sign Loanee Defender on Permanent Deal

Former Leicester City captain Steve Walsh says the Foxes should sign Aleksandar Dragovic to a permanent contract.

The Austrian centre back joined the former Premier League champions on loan from Bayer Leverkusen last year and has impressed when given the opportunity.

And Walsh, a former defender who spent 14 years with the Foxes, racking up more than 400 appearances, reckons making the deal permanent would be great for his old club.

He has, however, warned that Dragovic would have to remain patient if he wants to become a first choice centre back at the club as Wes Morgan still has a lot to offer, while Harry Maguire is expected to continue partnering the Jamaican.
