Ghanaian midfielder Daniel Amartey could leave Leicester City in the winter transfer window after finding himself still out of Breden Rodgers plans

The 24-year-old has spent the campaign has had no premier league appearance which is igniting a possible mid-season exist, having nearly left over the summer.

The Ghanaian international was close to joining Trabzonspor before the deal collapsed due to the Turkish outfit running out of money. He’s spent the following months on the periphery at Leicester, being omitted out of every matchday squad in the premier league and only making the bench in one EFL Cup outing.

With Wilfred Ndidi, Hamza Choudhury, Youri Tielemans and Dennis Praet preferred in midfield, it’s clear Amartey is finished under Rodgers and will need to find himself a new club in January. There hasn’t been a lot of transfer talk surrounding the midfielder, however, so time will tell if he can get himself a mid-season move away.

On January 2016, Amartey joined Premier League side Leicester City from Copenhagan on a four-and-a-half-year contract for a fee up to £6 million.

Amartey featured five times in his first season as they clinched the Premier League title.
