Harry Maguire has agreed to a crucial element in his new contractThe 2016 Premier League champions sold former PFA player of the year Riyad Mahrez to Manchester City in the summer. Jamie Vardy, who scored 24 times in their title season, has yet to complete 90 minutes this term and was banned for the last three games. Wes Morgan remains as skipper but boss Puel now rates ball-­playing England centre-back Maguire as the club’s most important player. The Foxes have just tied Maguire down to a five-year deal worth £20million after his World Cup heroics, which sparked bids from Manchester United.
