Michail Antonio’s Transfer to Leicester City Unravels

Setback in Deal

Former West Ham forward Michail Antonio’s anticipated transfer to Leicester City has unfortunately fallen apart.

Training with Leicester

Following his release from West Ham during the summer, Antonio has been undergoing training with the Championship team for the past month.

Injury Complications

The Jamaican international had just made a comeback after suffering a leg injury in a car accident last Christmas. He was poised to secure a contract with Leicester until a new injury sustained during training derailed the negotiations.

Manager’s Statement

“Unfortunately, Michail Antonio experienced a minor setback during our training sessions, leading us to halt the process we initiated,” commented Foxes manager Marti Cifuentes to the media.

He further added, “It’s unfortunate because he is a fantastic individual and a true professional. He demonstrated great qualities, both on and off the field, during his time with us. However, this incident alters our plans.”
