AdminRussell Martin has moved quickly to address speculation surrounding Stephy Mavididi’s future after taking charge of Leicester City, revealing that he has already held talks with one of the club’s most influential players.
Mavididi remains a key figure at the King Power Stadium despite Leicester’s disappointing relegation to League One last season.
The winger has attracted interest following another campaign in which he demonstrated his quality, but Martin appears determined to keep him at the heart of his plans.
Speaking after Leicester’s latest outing, Martin revealed that he had spoken directly with the 28-year-old and was encouraged by the response he received.
The new Foxes boss explained that Mavididi remains committed to the project and is excited by the direction the club is heading under the new coaching staff.
Sources close to the situation suggest the forward has no immediate desire to force a move away and is prepared to help Leicester push for a return to the Championship.
Mavididi has been one of Leicester’s most consistent attacking threats since arriving from Montpellier in 2023, and Martin views him as a crucial player in the rebuild.
For Leicester supporters, Martin’s update will come as welcome news as preparations for the new season continue.
