DEAL: Leicester City Pass On Signing Inter Milan & Italy Midfielder as perfect Keirnan Dewsbury-Hall replacement

Leicester City will not be signing Inter Milan midfielder Stefano Sensi on a free transfer this summer, but there’s interest from the MLS.

This according to Italian news outlet FCInterNews.\

One thing is absolutely certain: Sensi will not be an Inter player next season.

The 28-year-old’s contract with the Nerazzurri runs out at the end of June. And there would be absolutely zero chance of his being offered a contract extension.

Therefore, Sensi will leave Inter on a free transfer, five years after signing from Sassuolo.

After a promising start to his time at the Nerazzurri, it has been a tough time for the midfielder.

Injuries have played a role – putting it mildly – in restricting Sensi’s contributions.

The Italian international has made a total of 56 appearances for the Nerazzurri. He has scored four goals across them in all competitions.

Moreover, Sensi spent the second half of the 2021-22 season out on loan with Sampdoria. And he was on loan at Monza for the entirety of last campaign.

Leicester Drop Interest In Stefano Sensi – MLS Clubs Keen

Leicester City had been interested in signing Sensi during the January transfer window.

The Foxes wanted to bring the Italian international in to bolster their ranks as they pushed for promotion to the Premier League. Leicester coach Enzo Maresca is a big fan of Sensi.

Inter, for their part, would have been more than happy to sell the former Sassuolo midfielder for a small fee six months before his contract expires.

However, the move fell through in the final day of the transfer window.

Therefore, Sensi stayed at Inter for the rest of the current season.

That would have opened the door for the possibility for Leicester to sign Sensi on a free transfer.

However, FCIN report that the Foxes’ interest in the 28-year-old has passed. They have already won promotion to the Premier League – therefore, they have other targets with a higher budget.

As to where Sensi will go next, that is currently a mystery.

FCIN report that there are clubs in the MLS that are keen on the Inter midfielder, however
