Leicester City moved on a lot of players during the 2024 summer transfer window, some of which have since fared better than others.
All told, eight senior players left the King Power Stadium in the most recent transfer window.
The most notable exit, of course, saw Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall join Chelsea alongside former manager, Enzo Maresca.
Leicester City fans want Dewsbury-Hall back at their club, however, with the midfielder struggling for game time since his move.
Elsewhere, Ben Nelson was spotted at the Leicester training ground this week alongside Ricardo Pereira despite being on loan at Oxford United.
The 20-year-old has returned to the Midlands in order to recover from a serious injury he picked up while out on loan.
Other stars to leave Leicester this summer include Kelechi Iheanacho and Dennis Praet, both of whom left on free transfers after not having their contracts renewed.

The 28-year-old was never the most prolific goalscorer for the Foxes, finding the net just five times in the Championship last season.
Now, with Ihenancho having a torrid start to life with Sevilla, it already looks as though the La Liga side are ready to cut their losses.
According to Spanish outlet Elsevillista, Championship duo West Bromwich Albion and Watford are now looking to sign the Nigerian once the January transfer window opens.
A loan move for the striker is an option, but the outlet also suggests he could join one of the aforementioned clubs for free – meaning his contract, which runs until 2026 with an option of a further year, would need to be terminated.

Kelechi Iheanacho honest verdict on final Leicester City season
Iheanacho spent seven years with Leicester following a transfer from Manchester City in 2017.
But he was never really able to nail down a regular starting place for the club, especially in his last season.
The Foxes dominated the Championship but the Imo-born star was only afforded 915 minutes of playing time.
After leaving his long-time club, Iheanacho gave his verdict on his final year there.
He said: “Last season was one of mixed emotions. I played the first half of the season but I didn’t really get a chance in the second part of the season. But most importantly, as a team, we won the trophy.
“We were a good group together. We did it for all of us and for the football club. That was the most important thing. It’s a nice football club and a good family. It was great to end with a smile and a trophy.”
