Claude Puel to spend big at Leicester City in summer?

Leicester City reportedly intend to hand a large transfer budget to manager Claude Puel during the summer window.

Leicester City have reportedly decided to hand a large budget to manager Claude Puel for the summer transfer window.

Earlier this season, Puel was brought in as a replacement for Craig Shakespeare and the Frenchman has gone on to record 11 wins and nine draws from his 26 matches in charge of the Foxes.

According to the Leicester Mercury, the hierarchy of the East Midlands outfit are pleased with Puel's work at the King Power Stadium and are prepared to back the 56-year-old in the market.

Puel will likely be able to add to the funds made available to him by selling the likes of Leonardo Ulloa and Islam Slimani, who play no part in his long-term plans.

Leicester are currently in contention to finish in seventh place in the Premier League table.
