Caleb Okoli, currently on international duty with Italy, has been seen as a potential signing for Serie A giants Inter. Okoli (23) impressed in the Italian top flight last season, on loan with Frosinone. His move to Leicester is one very few understand, because his presence is not really needed at this point. Leicester manager Steve Cooper splashed out a heavy fee in the region of £15million, having Conor Coady, Jannik Vestergaard and Wout Faes to call on, all of them on long term deals and still very capable defenders with heavy international experience.
To see talk about Caleb Okoli leaving this January, makes in real no sense, but for the player himself, we do believe he should never have joined the club in the first place, just messing with Steve Copper’s head regarding selection options.
Another player that came in the door during the summer is Bobby De-Cordova Reid, finding himself in a frustrating place at the moment. De-Cordova Reid (31) has been a bleak affair so far at Leicester, only fielded twice from start vs. Fulham and Spurs.

The Jamaica international has so far not been given much of trust and his situation is in limbo at the club, being seen as another potential mover in January. His option to play first team football looks very limited under Steve Cooper, not really showing to have a grand plan for the former Bristol City, Cardiff and Fulham man.
Steve Cooper also have grand problems regarding Odsonne Eduoard, who looks to have found himself miles away from what was expected, playing 30 PL games for Crystal Palace last season, scoring 7 goals. With a return to action for Patson Daka, he could be even further down the pecking order. Would describe Edouard’s situaton at Leicester as similar to the Sahara desert. We have no information regarding Edouard and his potential chance of either returning to Crystal Palace or being shipped out somewhere else, to open space for another loan signing in January.
Bristol City fans would possibly fancy a return for Bobby De-Cordova Reid, who was a great favourite on the Ashton Gate terraces. Potentially a move back to his former club could be what the utility man could fancy, if not Steve Cooper decides to bring him back in the first team frame again.
