Former Leicester City flop Ahmed Musa could make a surprise move to Sheffield Wednesday, according to Football Insider. The Nigeran played for the Foxes between 2016 and 2018, having joined for a hefty £16m fee – a club record at the time.

The 28-year-old is currently without a club after being released by Al Nassr and Wednesday have been tipped to snap him up on a free transfer, with Tony Pulis now in charge at the Championship outfit.

A number of Leicester City fans have been showing their love for Ricardo Pereira following the “excellent news” of the right-back’s return to action on Monday night.
