Center back David Hancko of Feyenoord is a target for Leicester City. Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot, has been linked to a speedy reunion with the 26-year-old Slovakian international, but the Anfield team is considering defenders with a younger profile, such as Lille’s Leny Yoro.
Instead, it is Leicester are looking into a potential deal for Hancko who cost Feyenoord £4.75million from Sparta Prague in 2022 but has two years left on contract.Hancko can also fit in at left-back and has 37 caps for his country. He also offers a goal threat from set pieces and open play with 10 goals in the past two seasons.
As they deal with suspected violations of profit and sustainability regulations, Leicester is making changes to their team. They are also awaiting the outcome of Enzo Maresca’s tenure as coach, who was placed on Chelsea’s shortlist following his promotion as Championship champion in his debut year. Following their promotion, Maresca’s release clause—which was already somewhat under £10 million—was raised.
