Reviewing City's pre-season tour
Leicester City midfielder Oliver Skipp features on the latest edition of BBC Radio Leicester's When You're Smiling podcast to talk about how pre-season preparations at the Foxes are progressing.
The 25-year-old spoke following Leicester's 3-3 draw with Malaga, in what was the League One club's final fixture of their pre-season camp in Spain last week.
Before that, the Foxes had beaten Cadiz on their travels, and got the better of Northampton Town in friendly matches since Leicester boss Russell Martin took charge.
"Everyone has flourished and we can be proud of all performances, really, in pre-season," Skipp said.
"There have been moments where we haven't quite been as good, but on the whole I think there have been positive signs."
You can listen to the full Skipp interview, as well as in-depth analysis of pre-season to date, on BBC Sounds.
'We've already had conversations with Leicester'
Sheffield United are in talks with Leicester City over a deal to bring Australian international defender Harry Souttar back to the club.
Blades manager Chris Wilder has confirmed discussions are ongoing with the Foxes to sign the 27-year-old, who spent the 2024-25 season on loan at Bramall Lane.
"He's one that obviously has got history with us and we have been linked with him as well," Wilder told BBC Radio Sheffield.
"We've already had conversations with Leicester about taking him, so the conversations will be ongoing.
"He's a player that obviously I like and he had a great time on the pitch for us and off the pitch with the supporters. They rated him and they valued him."
Wilder said he "100%" expects incomings to arrive before Sheffield United's competitive season starts in the EFL Cup first round at Mansfield Town on 9 August.
The 58-year-old has identified centre-back and the wide positions as a priority for reinforcements, with the club also in talks with SK Brann winger Rabbi Matondo, who has featured in pre-season for United.
Centre-back Mark McGuinness is not part of Wilder's plans for the 2026-27 season and the club are trying to offload the 27-year-old, while fellow defender Nils Zatterstrom is expected to go out on loan.
