Leicester City have reached an important decision over the future of one of their senior defenders following internal discussions, with the club making it clear they are not prepared to sanction a move on the terms currently being offered.
The Foxes held talks over the player’s situation before deciding to reject the latest proposal, underlining Russell Martin’s determination to carefully manage his squad as preparations continue for the new season.
Leicester are assessing every senior player during pre-season and are unwilling to rush into departures unless the right deal is presented.
The player at the centre of the latest transfer developments is Victor Kristiansen. Greek giants Panathinaikos recently approached Leicester with a proposal for a season-long loan, including an option to make the move permanent next summer.
However, the Foxes turned down the offer and informed the Greek club that the proposed terms were not acceptable.

Kristiansen has attracted interest following Leicester’s relegation, and his future has been the subject of speculation throughout the summer transfer window.
Despite that interest, Leicester are maintaining control of the situation and are not prepared to let the Danish left-back leave on a deal that does not suit the club’s plans.
While the rejection of Panathinaikos’ bid does not guarantee Kristiansen will remain at the King Power Stadium beyond this summer, it does show Leicester’s current stance.
With the transfer window still open, further interest is expected, but any club hoping to sign the defender will need to meet the Foxes’ demands before an agreement can be reached.
