Rodgers likely to sell Amartey in January, nearly left Leicester in August

Daniel Amartey came close to leaving Leicester City in August when Trabzonspor were showing an interest, but Fotospor say the deal collapsed due to the Turkish Super Lig side running out of money.

This has left Amartey in limbo as he’s surplus to requirements at Leicester and unlikely to feature under Brendan Rodgers, so 24-year-old is left with little choice but to seek a move away in January.

Rodgers won’t stand in his way either as he’s preferred Wilfred Ndidi, Hamza Choudhury, Youri Tielemans, Dennis Praet, James Maddison, Harvey Barnes and even Nampalys Mendy in midfield this season.
