Questions reportedly arising over Christian Fuchs’ future at Leicester City.

According to The Sun, Christian Fuchs’ future at Leicester City is in doubt after the defender was seemingly offered less than he was expecting on a new contract offer.
The report claims that Fuchs has been left a frustrated figure after seeing a number of teammates receive improved offers in the summer and he could be open to leaving in the January transfer window.
The Austrian international joined the Foxes from Schalke on a three-year deal in the summer of 2015, and he soon became a key first-team member playing 32 Premier League matches last term.

In an astonishing season where Leicester won the title against the odds, Fuchs became the first Austrian to become a Premier League winner since Arsenal’s Alex Manninger in 1998.
However, as a number of players such as Jamie Vardy, Kasper Schmeichel and Danny Simpson earned new deals with handsome raises, Fuchs was only offered a small rise.

The Sun say he could look to leave should he not be offered better terms, and a switch to a fellow Premier League side as early as this January hasn’t been ruled out.
The 30-year-old has started all five of Leicester’s Premier League games this season, and he played 90 minutes in the recent 3-0 Champions League win over Club Bruges in Belgium.
