Young Talent on the Move Leicester City are on the verge of securing a deal to bring Chelsea's young starlet, Michael Golding, to the East Midlands. This move comes as part of a broader strategy by the club, highlighted by their decision to transfer Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall to Chelsea in a separate deal. Golding, a 19-year-old midfielder, is highly rated for his potential and skills, which were evident during his first-team debut in last season's FA Cup. The deal, interestingly, does not include a sell-on clause or matching rights for Chelsea, a point that could signify Leicester's confidence in Golding's long-term value to the club.

Unlike Omari Hutchinson's move to Ipswich Town, which includes such terms, Leicester are setting a clear statement of intent. They aim to cultivate Golding's talent without the looming possibility of Chelsea clawing back influence. This could suggest a shift in Leicester's transfer strategy, focusing more on securing promising talent on their terms.
