November 13, 2024
Akanji has been left out of the Swiss National Team callups with an ankle injury, forcing him to be an unused sub during the loss to Brighton.
ANALYSIS
Akanji is expected to take the extra week to recover from an ankle injury, forcing him to miss the clash with Brighton. He continues to be a solid choice in the back line for Manchester City, starting all nine games in the PL while totaling 23 clearances, seven tackles and eight crosses (three won). This puts him at a questionable state for the Tottenham clash on Nov 23.

Leicester might make a move to sign Akanji on loan for the entire season, according to The Daily Mail.
ANALYSIS
The Dortmund defender is desperate to play elsewhere in the 2022-23 season and Leicester might be an excellent opportunity, as he'd be pressure-free but in one of the best leagues in the world. The Foxes are looking at Akanji as the ideal replacement in case Wesley Fofana moves to Chelsea.
