That can happen in football, of course, but which Foxes players really flopped to the point that they make our list of eight players Leicester fans will want to forget?

The Algerian forward signed on transfer deadline day in August 2016 for a then club-record fee of £29 million to add to the attacking options in City’s squad alongside Jamie Vardy, Shinji Okazaki and Leonardo Ulloa.
However, he only managed to appear 47 times for the Foxes, scoring 13 goals and went out on loan to Newcastle United, Fenerbahce and Monaco during that time.
After just under five years at the club, he joined Lyon for a single season before making a return to Sporting Lisbon – the club he joined Leicester from.
