„Leicester City“ team has a new defender - Danish Janik Vestergaard arrived from „Southampton“. Not long ago, in a friendly match against „Villarreal“ team, young „Leicester“ center-back Wesley Fofana suffered a serious injury and dropped out of the squad until 2022. After this incident, the „Foxes“ had to look for a replacement for the Frenchman. Ultimately, the „Leicester“ team reached an agreement with „Southampton“ for the transfer of J. Vestergaard. The transfer fee is 15 million pounds sterling, according to reports. J. Vestergaard has played in the Premier League for the past three seasons and previously played in the Bundesliga, representing the teams of „Monchengladbach“ and „Hoffenheim“. Last season, Vestergaard played 30 matches for the „Southampton“ team, scoring 3 goals.
