Leicester city confirm move for midfielder who scored 14 goals last season

Leicester City are reportedly one of several clubs showing an interest in Bodo/Glimt midfielder Albert Grønbaek with the January transfer window now around the corner.

The Foxes looked set to take the Championship by storm after their unexpected relegation from the Premier League and they were doing exactly that up until a couple of weeks ago.

Enzo Maresca’s side were winning week in and week out in what seemed to be second gear until they were beaten by Leeds United and then Middlesbrough on back-to-back weekends.

Those two defeats have shown that they are certainly not going to get it all their own way this season, but Maresca will be looking at who he can sign in January to make sure they do with reports in Norway claiming Danish midfielder Grønbaek on his radar.

Who is Albert Grønbaek?

Grønbaek is a 22-year-old midfielder from Denmark who is currently playing for Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt and is reportedly attracting interest from several clubs, according to Nettavisen Sport.

He joined the club in August 2022 from Danish team Aarhus Gymnastikforening, otherwise known as AGF, which was the club where he had been since 2015 and made his senior debut.

Since his move to Norway, he has been a revelation for Bodo/Glint as in 66 games he has scored 20 goals whilst providing 11 assists.

He won the Eliteserien title with them as well in 2023 with the Norwegian league starting in March and finishing in early November, hence why there are now rumours spreading about him getting a move away.

However, even though his league season has finished, Bodo/Glimt are in the UEFA Europa Conference League so he will still have two more matches to play before his season is completely over in Norway.
