Benkovic should leave Leicester in January, Rodgers’ treatment to blame

Filip Benkovic has struggled for playing time at Leicester City and should consider a move away in January. The 22-year-old finds himself behind Jonny Evans, Caglar Soyuncu & Wes Morgan in the pecking order under Brendan Rodgers and may have to leave the King Power Stadium for first-team opportunities.

Benkovic hasn’t played a single minute of football at senior level this season, instead turning out for the u23s – he’s been left out of the matchday squad in as 12 of Leicester’s game too. As per Transfermarkt, the Croatian international has made four appearances for the reserve team, two of which have come in the last nine days.
