Former Charlton loanee linked with Leicester City move

Leicester City are reportedly keen on signing Montpellier winger Stephy Mavididi this summer.

The 25-year-old had two spells on loan at Charlton during his time at Arsenal, making 20 appearances in all competitions and scoring twice.

Mavididi signed for Juventus when he left Arsenal permanently in August 2018. He made one senior appearance for The Old Lady, playing 21 minutes as a substitute in a 2-1 defeat to SPAL in 2019.

The former Preston loanee then moved to French side Montpellier in 2020, where he has made 98 appearances and scored 21 goals.

It has been reported that the Foxes – who were relegated to the Championship last season – are set to rival Lille and Club Brugge for the former Charlton forward’s signature this summer.
