Leicester City HubLeicester City have been plagued by goalkeeping issues this season. Harry French, a 20-year-old goalkeeper, has been added to the bench for a crucial match against Ipswich Town.
What's behind the goalkeeping crisis?
The Foxes have been struggling to find a reliable goalkeeper, with Asmir Begovic injured and Stevie Bausor also sidelined. This has led to a lack of depth in the goalkeeping department.
Who is Harry French?
French is a young, inexperienced goalkeeper who has been playing for the Under-21s. He has a commanding presence in the box and possesses refined distribution and sharp reflexes.
Why has French been added to the bench?
With no senior goalkeepers available, manager Gary Rowett has been forced to look to the developmental squad for solutions. French's addition to the bench is a sign of the desperation of the situation.
The Foxes are in a tough spot, and the goalkeeping crisis is just one of many problems they face. With the season slipping away, the team needs to find a way to turn things around quickly.
| Player | Status |
|---|---|
| Asmir Begovic | Injured |
| Stevie Bausor | Injured |
| Harry French | On the bench |
The match against Ipswich Town is a must-win for the Foxes, and they will be hoping that French can provide a spark if called upon. The young goalkeeper's elevation to the bench is a surprise, but it may be just what the team needs to get out of their current slump.
