Leicester need McGregor to add creativity

Brendan Rodgers could be in the market for a central midfielder this summer due to a lack of creativity in the Leicester City squad outside of James Maddison. Vicente Iborra was sold, Youri Tielemans returned to AS Monaco, Adrien Silva is surplus to requirements, Matty James has struggled with injuries and Hamza Choudhury isn’t commanding a starting place.

The Leicester manager could scour the transfer market for a new creative midfielder and should consider bring Callum McGregor to the Midlands. The £15m-rated Celtic man was a standout performer in 2018/19, scoring and creating 22 goals in 59 games, and could attract a lot of interest as a result.
