El Khannouss, McAteer and Fatawu much more important as Brighton property getting Liverpool and Man City attention
Yesterday at 11:56 AM
Leicester is not seen as the final destination for Facundo Bounanotte, as his presence in the team has been sensational so far, and of course pleasing to see his contribution getting important points on board.
The attacking option either just behind the top target man or out on the flank looks to be the ideal position for the 19 year old Argentinian full international.
The fact that Leicester in the summer made two other special signings in Bilal El Khannouss and Abdul Fatawu, also very youn and talented players, both established in their national teams Morocco and Ghana, but still not had the same flashing start to the season at the Argentinian.
Yesterday Abdul Fatawu made the most of his time on the field. One of the highlights was setting up Facundo Bounanotte for his goal and showing us all what type of threat he can be. So crucial to see him develope and play steady and regularly as he last season was an integral part of the Leicester team promoted.
Bilal El Khannouss was a pivotal signing for Leicester in the summer, he is club property and one that hopefully will become important as the season progress. He was in the starting line-up yesterday, but his presence looks vague and uncertain, hitting the post with a nice attempt.
Kasey McAteer made his full international debut for Ireland a few weeks back and was again involved in the Nation League games last week, but looks to be far on the fringe under Steve Cooper. He is one local player that had a great progress last season and hopefully will be succesful, but playing in the same positions as El Khannouss and Bounanotte, he looks out of the short term picture.
Bounanotte will be of great importance this season, but he is a player that will in a way stay in the way for other young prospects to shine, as he occupies the same positions as the three other full internationals.
A tough dilemma for Steve Cooper as he in a way develope a player that Leicester most certainly never will see again as the top clubs is gathering to start a chase on the Brighton property. Liverpool and Man City has their eyes all over the Argentinian international.
