Efficiency with transfers and a commitment to youth are signs of renewed ambition from the club who did the impossible
It says much about the way that Leicester City are operating these days that their transfer plans extend well beyond this window. Forward-thinking is at the heart of an active approach to recruitment that has seen Leicester bring in three new faces already and break their transfer record with the sort of signing that suggests the club who gave us one of the great sporting fairytales of modern times could be ready to ruffle a few feathers again.
Three years have passed since that incredible Premier League title success and, realistically, there was always going to be a tricky period of readjustment for everyone at Leicester. For a while the club were trying to find themselves again and, perhaps more than anything, work out where they belonged in football’s pecking order once the Champions League music had stopped playing and the memories of Andrea Bocelli bringing the house down at the King Power Stadium had started to fade.
