​Leicester boss Puel admits he may need to sell strikers in January

Leicester City manager Claude Puel has admitted that he may need to offload some of his strikers during the upcoming January transfer window.

Puel has a plethora of attacking options to choose from at the moment as the likes of Jamie Vardy, Islam Slimani, Kelechi Iheanacho, Ahmed Musa and Leonardo Ulloa are all available at his disposal, but given the fact that he cannot hand all of the strikers enough game time, the French manager has admitted that he will be looking to offload a few of his attackers in January.

Puel said: "But we have a lot of strikers with different qualities. We cannot play with all the players at the same time. It is difficult. Jamie is very strong and can play game after game. I hope we can give game time to other players during this busy period.

"Time will tell. The window is not open, we will see. For the moment, we just look at all these games. We need all the players."
