Brendan Rodgers is expected to be on the hunt for at least one centre-forward this summer with Leicester City being over-reliant on Jamie Vardy for goals. The Foxes have little to no backup for the 32-year-old in case of injury, with Shinji Okazaki being released this summer and Kelechi Iheanacho being surplus to requirements after struggling for form.
Leicester tried to sign Charlie Austin to strengthen their attack in January and should consider returning for him in the coming weeks as he could be made available by Southampton. The £70k-per-week striker has fallen down the pecking order at St Mary’s and may be open to a move away if it boosts his chances of getting more first-team football.
