Leicester City want to sign Danny Ings on a free transfer.
The 33-year-old striker is currently a free agent after his contract with Sheffield United expired. The Foxes have been relegated from the Championship and want to build a team that can bounce back strongly.
An experienced striker could be a useful acquisition for them. If he can overcome his injury issues, he could be a very useful option in the short term.
According to the Telegraph, the 33-year-old is expected to sign for Leicester City this weekend and is expected to complete his medical in the coming days. The Foxes are expected to offer him a one-year contract, but it remains to be seen whether Ings can make his mark at Leicester City next season.
The Foxes had a very disappointing season last year and were relegated at the end of the season. We need quality players to bounce back.
Apart from his goal-scoring ability, Ings has a wealth of experience in the top flight and could be their leader in the dressing room. The opportunity to play regularly for the Foxes at this stage of his career is exciting for the 33-year-old, so it’s no wonder he chose to join them. He is unlikely to secure a big move at this stage of his career and taking a step back by joining a League One club may prove to be a wise decision.
Ings will aim to play regularly next year and establish himself as a key player for the Foxes. There is no doubt that he has the qualities to make a huge impact in English football’s third tier and could help Leicester City re-enter the Championship.
