MikeyT Posted 3 March 2019 Share Posted 3 March 2019 (edited) https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leicester-city-boyata-celtic-transfer-2603608 Leicester City have been linked with a move for Celtic defender Dedryck Boyata. The 28-year-old shone under former Bhoys boss Brendan Rodgers, now at Leicester following his departure from Parkhead last summer., and is wanted by the new Foxes boss according to the Sun. Boyata formed a formidable partnership with Filip Benkovic, on loan at Celtic from City, before suffering hamstring and knee injuries. The Belgium international, who played at last summer's World Cup in Russia, is out of contract in the summer and has been the subject of Premier League interest before. Boyata, a product of Manchester City's youth academy, has made 30 appearances for Celtic this season. Signed by the Hoops in 2015, Boyata has won three Scottish Premiership titles, two Scottish FA Cups and a pair of Scottish League Cups, making 133 appearances in total.

foxfanazer Posted 3 March 2019 Share Posted 3 March 2019 Can remember him pulling his hamstring trying to catch Lloyd Dyer years ago. Just an awful player that we should definitely avoid. Don't see it being true anyway with us having so many centre backs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeTheFox Posted 3 March 2019 Share Posted 3 March 2019 Would be okay as a fifth choice. He's not an awful player anymore I don't think. Would rather just put faith in Hughes or Knight though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaggertvsWise Posted 3 March 2019 Share Posted 3 March 2019 I have not heard good things about him. The biggest compliment was when a Celtic fan made a backhanded comment by saying about Benkovic “He even makes Boyata look good”... plus why would we need another CB with over 30mill worth of talent plus promising youngsters waiting to bed in is beyond me.

Because Maguire may be sold and I don't think anyone really wants to re-sign Morgan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
