McAvennie has been adamant that the Manchester United outcast could be a brilliant acquisition for the Foxes. He added:

“You see him for England and he’s decent, so it’s rare. He’ll have to leave because he doesn’t have a game. It’s fine to be captain, but not if you don’t have game time. I think going back to Leicester would be a good option.”

He has never been able to live up to his massive £80m price tag during his time at Old Trafford.
