Leicester City can reveal that three top professionals will depart the club when their contracts expire in June. – Leicester City has confirmed the departure of three top personnel whose contracts expired in June. Marc Albrighton, Kelechi Iheanacho, and Dennis Praet left King Power Stadium. Among those retiring is Leicester City veteran Marc Albrighton, who played 313 games in all competitions and won the Premier League, Emirates FA Cup, FA Community Shield, and Sky Bet Championship.
The winger, who also scored City’s first UEFA Champions League goal against Club Brugge in September 2016, will be remembered as one of the most successful and popular players in the club’s history. Marc’s talent, hard effort, and dedication over the decade since joining on a free transfer at King Power Stadium have earned him the admiration of the Blue Army, and he will be remembered for playing an important role during the Club’s finest era.
Kelechi Iheanacho is also departing Filbert Way, after seven years in the East Midlands. Since signing from Manchester City in August 2017, the popular attacker has scored 61 goals for Leicester, including the winner against his previous team in the FA Community Shield final at Wembley Stadium in August 2021. Dennis Praet, a Belgian midfielder who joined King Power Stadium from Sampdoria in August 2019 and has made 107 appearances, scoring five goals, will also leave this summer.
The Club is still in talks with midfielder Wilfred Ndidi about his future beyond the expiration of his current contract this month. The Club respects all three departing players for their services during their time with Leicester City and wishes them well in the future phases of their careers.
