"Cashin could prove to be a quality acquisition for them. The Brighton defender will help them tighten up at the back. He has struggled for opportunities at the Premier League club and he will look to get his career back on track. Regular football with Leicester in the Championship would be ideal for Cashin as well. It remains to be seen whether Leicester City can secure an agreement with Brighton over the next few weeks."
"Meanwhile, Patterson has struggled for regular opportunities at Sunderland as well. He could prove to be an interesting acquisition for the Foxes. Patterson was highly rated across England a few years ago but his stock has plummeted recently. He is struggling for opportunities at Sunderland and it would make sense for him to move on. Regular football in the Championship could help him regain his form and confidence."
Leicester City have targeted Eiran Cashin from Brighton and Anthony Patterson from Sunderland as January transfer options to shore up a vulnerable defence. Cashin, 24, has had limited opportunities at Brighton but has Championship experience from a loan at Birmingham City and could make an immediate impact with regular football. Patterson has also struggled for game time at Sunderland after previously being highly rated in England; a loan move for regular Championship minutes could help him regain form and attract future transfers. Strengthening the squad in January is viewed as essential for Leicester's fight to survive in the Championship.
