AdminHarry Winks is set to leave Leicester City this summer after the midfielder decided against staying at the club following their disastrous relegation campaign.
The former Tottenham man has endured a miserable season at the King Power Stadium, with Leicester suffering a second successive relegation after dropping into League One.
Reports surrounding the club’s financial situation, combined with growing frustration among supporters, have left several senior players considering their futures, and Winks now appears to have made his mind up.
Leicester’s latest Championship outing only added to the tension around the club. Gary Rowett’s side were held to a damaging draw in a performance that summed up their troubled campaign, with fans once again voicing their anger at the players and board.
Winks started on the bench during the crucial clash as Leicester’s midfield struggled to control the game.
The 30-year-old has reportedly informed people close to him that he wants a fresh challenge away from the club, with interest already beginning to emerge from Championship sides and clubs abroad.
Winks joined Leicester from Tottenham in 2023 and played a major role in their Championship-winning promotion season, but the mood around the club has changed dramatically over the last 12 months.
Tensions between supporters and players have also become increasingly visible. Winks was recently involved in a heated exchange with fans following Leicester’s defeat at Portsmouth, highlighting the growing disconnect between the squad and the supporters.
With his contract entering its final stage and Leicester preparing for life in League One, all signs now point towards Winks bringing his spell at the club to an end this summer.
