Leicester City Provisional Squad To Face Bournemouth – £20m Defender Hoping To Make Debut

Leicester City take on Bournemouth in their first Premier League back since the international break.

Turkey international star Caglar Soyuncu started both games for his national team against Russia and Sweden.

Russia beat Turkey 2-1 but the Crescent-Stars recorded a 3-2 victory over Sweden.

The defender returned from international duty unscathed and is ‘fit and ready’ to make his debut according to head coach Claude Puel.

Soyuncu had been nursing a muscle injury after joining the Foxes on a £20m move [Turkish-Football] on transfer deadline day.

The 22-year-old will become the first Turkish international to play for Leicester since Muzzi Izzet if he does feature against the Cherries today.

Leicester will be without midfielder Matty James who requires surgery due to an Achilles problem.

The Foxes welcome back Jamie Vardy who has missed the last three matches through suspension after his straight red card against Wolves on August 18.

Bournemouth could be without Ryan Fraser but Charlie Daniels and Junior Stanislas are both sidelined.
