Leicester Identify Harry Maguire Replacements as Defender's Move to Man Utd Nears Completion

Leicester have identified Watford's Christian Kabasele and Getafe centre-back Djene Dakonam as potential replacements for the outgoing Harry Maguire.

The wheels have been set in motion for Maguire's move to Manchester United with an £80m deal finally agreed late this week, and the deal set to be completed in the coming days.

Leicester had previously been linked with an approach for Brighton defender Lewis Dunk as an immediate replacement for Maguire, and the Seagulls' recent acquisition of Adam Webster only added more fuel to the fire.

However, Leicester may be turning their attentions elsewhere.
