DM: Vincente Iborra

New signing Vincente Iborra will play an important part in any success for Leicester this season. The midfielder could play the role of a defensive midfielder and protect the back four, but he can also be used as an attacking midfielder as well.

The Spaniard does have an ability to score goals which must not be underestimated, but at first, he is likely to be used in a defensive role with the 29-year-old standing at 6ft 3 inches.

CM: Danny Drinkwater

Alongside Iborra will be Danny Drinkwater, that’s if he isn’t to move clubs before the end of the transfer window.

Drinkwater and Wilfred Ndidi created a formidable partnership towards the end of last season, but with Iborra being a £15 million signing, fans will be keen to see what he has to offer. Additionally, Drinkwater cannot afford to be dropped from the starting line-up as his link up with Jamie Vardy is so pivotal to the way Leicester attack.
