On loan striker Geoff Horsfield wants to make his loan move from Sheffield United to Leicester a permanent one. Arriving at the end of January the 33 year old striker's inclusion in Rob Kelly's line up coincided with an upturn in the side's fortunes.
Horsfield told the Mercury that a permanent deal was originally planned but City pre-Milan Mandaric simply did not have the funds.
Horsfield commented: "Mr Mandaric's arrival has lifted a cloud off everybody. It's given us all confidence and it's means the gaffer knows where he is going, and that is the same for the players.
He says it's a three-year plan to become a Premiership club but, hopefully, we can do it next season."
Yes finally looks like we can offload him.
Fingers crossed we get a decent fee.
