It’s fair to say that Leicester are doing a magnificent job this season.
Whilst currently occupying 10th place, the Foxes have been brilliant at times this season under Claude Puel but consistency will be their biggest concern.
To reach the top tier of the Premier League, it is vital they try and improve their squad in the upcoming January transfer window.
The Sun (who cite unnamed reports in Spain) are already reporting that Leicester will try to recruit Spain and Celta Vigo star Brais Mendez when the window opens, in the hope of adding more creativeness to their ranks.
Undoubtedly he is a star in the making, so what could this mean for Leicester…
Competition for James Maddison
Leicester truly uncovered a gem in James Maddison over the summer but seeing as Brais Mendez is also an attacking midfielder, realistically, only one of them can be a name in the starting line-up.
Despite how good Maddison has been, Mendez has equally been as brilliant, especially when you see he has three goals and two assists to his name, as well as scoring on his debut for Spain.
Attacking quality improves
Regardless of whether Brais Mendez starts or not, Leicester’s team will be bolstered with him in it.
He has broken through the ranks at Celta Vigo to become the talent he is today. Leicester must really believe that Mendez could make all the difference to their season and they would be right if he continues his scintillating form in the Premier League.
