According to a report from RMC Sport, Boubakary Soumaré (26) and his entourage are paying close attention to the transfer market after Leicester City confirmed their relegation from the Premier League with a 1-0 loss to Liverpool on Sunday afternoon.

A former Ligue 1 champion with Lille OSC in the 2020/2021 season, Soumaré could be of interest to French clubs looking for a deal. The midfielder’s contract with The Foxes only lasts until 2026, and the club could be open to a transfer to bring in additional funds.
