Leicester City are reportedly prepared to allow Patson Daka to leave during the January transfer window, marking a potential turning point for the Zambian forward’s career.
According to sources, the 26-year-old, whose form and opportunities have dwindled at the club, is attracting interest from European sides.
In 2023, Daka was on the verge of joining AFC Bournemouth, but the deal collapsed on the final day of the transfer window.
Despite the setback, he has remained a frequent topic of transfer speculation, with his future at Leicester appearing increasingly uncertain.
Sources close to Daka have indicated that his new representatives, Wasserman, believe his career at Leicester has stalled.
They are keen to secure a move to a club where he can gain more playing time and reignite his form.
Daka’s contributions this season have been limited by an ankle injury sustained during pre-season, which sidelined him for much of the campaign’s first half.
The striker has managed only seven Premier League appearances so far, scoring just once—a stark contrast to the promise he showed upon his arrival at Leicester.
As the January transfer window progresses, Leicester have reportedly offered Daka to AS Monaco. Torino is also said to have expressed interest in acquiring the forward.
Meanwhile, Leicester are already preparing for life without him, closing in on the signing of Emmanuel Latte Lath from Middlesbrough in a deal believed to be worth approximately £12 million.
With his departure seeming increasingly likely, Daka will be hoping that a fresh start elsewhere can help him recapture the form that earned him a move to the Premier League in the first place.
For Leicester, the potential deal could signal a shift as they aim to bolster their squad and improve their fortunes in the second half of the season.
