Leicester City’s talks to sign Chelsea man Cesare Casadei on loan are advancing, trusted reporter Fabrizio Romano has said.
Leicester City have been frequently linked with Chelsea’s Italian prodigy Casadei this summer
He made a decent impression with Reading over the second half of last season but after he played a starring role for Italy U20s over the summer, it looked as though a move to a higher level could await the 20-year-old ahead of the new campaign.
However, rumours of a move to Enzo Maresca’s Foxes have persisted and now, a new updated has emerged from transfer guru Romano.
City’s season gets underway against Coventry City this Sunday, so while that one may come too soon for Casadei, the hope will be that a deal can be wrapped up to secure a statement signing for the rest of the campaign.
An eye-catching addition
It remains to be seen whether or not Leicester City can get the signing of Italian starlet Casadei wrapped up but he will be a fantastic addition to their ranks if so. The link with Italian boss Maresca looks to be playing a key part in his recruitment, so the hope will be that the manager can really get the best out of the Chelsea man.
