The Leicester board view the arrival of Boubakary Soumaré as separate to the Ndidi situation and that the current Lille man, who is joining for €25m including bonuses, is not seen as a replacement for the Nigerian.

The reporter adds that LCFC like RB Leipzig midfielder Christopher Nkunku, but the ex-PSG man wishes to remain in the Champions’ League.
