Leicester Plotting January Move As They Look To Turn Their Season Around

Leicester Plotting January Move As They Look To Turn Their Season Around

They may be smashing it in their first season in the Champions League but Champions Leicester City are very much struggling domestically this season.

Their latest loss, a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Watford on Saturday, leaves Claudio Ranieri's men in 14th place in the Premier League, just two points above the relegation zone.

But Leicester are said to be planning a bit of business in the January transfer in order to turn their season around.

The Foxes struggled to replace key man N'Golo Kante, who left for Chelsea in the summer, with new signing Nampalys Mendy struggling to fulfil the important duties of shielding the back four. He has also been unable to stay fit.

That means Ranieri will look to sign another midfielder when the January transfer window rolls around. According to The Mirror, Leicester are planning a move for Serbia and Olympiakos midfielder Luka Milivojevic.

Milivojevic, a defensive midfielder, has been a permanent fixture in the Greek outfit's side this season, while he is also a regular in the Serbia national team squad and started in the 1-1 away draw against Wales in the recent international break.
