Russell Martin’s latest Leicester City snub raises awkward £10m transfer question

Leicestershire Live's Josh Holland argues that Russell Martin's decision to bench Harry Souttar raises major transfer questions following Leicester City's 3-1 defeat to Peterborough. Despite previously rejecting £10m summer interest from Wrexham and Sheffield United for the Australian international, Martin opted to start Caleb Okoli instead, leaving the former captain on the sidelines as Leicester's defensive struggles continued.

Holland questions why Leicester kept Souttar if he is not first choice, suggesting selling him would have made financial sense in League One. The writer also criticizes the decision to start Okoli, who suffered consecutive relegations with the club, over alternative defensive options.
