Manchester City Leading Pursuit of Leicester Prodigy Jeremy Monga as Premier Clubs Move In

He cannot sign a professional contract until next summer, leaving Leicester exposed to approaches in the coming months.

Overview

  • Reports from TBR Football and others say Man City are at the front of the queue for the 16-year-old winger after trying to land him last summer.
  • Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester United and Newcastle are monitoring the situation, with some reports also linking Barcelona and Real Madrid.
  • CaughtOffside reports City have made an enquiry, reflecting renewed interest as the teenager continues to feature regularly for Leicester’s first team.
  • Monga has broken through at 16 with double-digit Championship appearances and early goal contributions after debuting in the Premier League last season.
  • Leicester are giving him senior minutes in hopes he stays to sign professional terms next year, as opinion pieces warn a big-club move could slow his development.
