You’ve crossed the line as a professional 😡😡😡: Foxes star makes unbelievable comment that has reportedly led Leicester City to ask him to leave with immediate effect.

foxes star appears destined to leave Leicester City at the end of the season, with the midfielder’s future looking increasingly distant from the King Power Stadium following the club’s disappointing campaign.

The Wales international arrived with plenty of promise and quickly became one of the more exciting figures in the squad, but Leicester’s relegation has all but ended hopes of keeping hold of him.

Financial limitations and the player’s own ambitions mean a permanent stay in the Championship looks highly unlikely.

Supporters may also have raised an eyebrow at James naming former Birmingham City teammate Troy Deeney as the greatest EFL player of all time.

Deeney remains a controversial figure among Leicester fans after his unforgettable role in Watford’s dramatic play-off semi-final victory in 2013, a moment still painful for many within the Blue Army.

Yet it was James’ confident assessment of Leicester’s situation earlier in the season that has now returned to haunt him most.

“If you think Leicester can be in League One, then you have lost your mind,” the 21-year-old told BBC Radio Leicester.

“The players we have got are Premier League players and it will show. I genuinely believe that.”

At the time, the comments reflected belief and confidence within the dressing room. However, football has a habit of punishing bold predictions, and Leicester’s collapse has left those remarks looking badly misplaced.

James now seems set to move on, leaving behind flashes of quality mixed with frustration and disappointment.
