Leicester City transfer stance emerges after Enzo Maresca makes ‘need to learn comment
Latest Leicester City news from LeicestershireLive as Luke Thomas is reportedly ‘considering’ a move before transfer deadline day
Leicester City defender Luke Thomas “may explore” a loan move before the transfer deadline, it has been claimed.
Thomas all afteris yet to play any competitive football under Enzo Maresca this season, and is keen to be playing first team footb winning the Under-21 Euros with England over the summer.
That’s according to talkSPORT, who say Thomas may “explore the possibility” of leaving the King Power Stadium on loan this summer. The transfer window closes on September 1.
The Syston-born youngster is finding game time hard to come by at Leicester, with Callum Doyle, Victor Kristiansen and James Justin above him in the pecking order under Maresca.
It’s also claimed that Thomas has a year left on his contract at the King Power Stadium, which means if he does head out on loan, the youngster may have already played his last game for Leicester.
At his pre-match press conference ahead of the win over Cardiff last week, Maresca was asked about Thomas and Victor Kristiansen, and spoke on their suitability for his way of playing.
“For sure as you say, they are two clear full-backs that in our system, they need to learn many things and to adapt,” he said. “We are trying to do it but at the same time we understand that the best qualities for them is to play as a full-back. It’s the way they have played all of their lives. We are trying to teach them some concepts.”
