Brendan Rodgers has revealed what he will say to potential new signings to entice them to Leicester City this summer.

The City boss has admitted the club will be shopping in a different market to the top six clubs this summer but he believes City still has plenty to offer new signings.

It is looking increasingly unlikely that City will be able to use European qualification to lure their top targets but Rodgers hopes the club’s ambition with the new training ground in development, and the number of talented young players he is developing will convince targets that City will be a good place for them to enhance their careers.

While Rodgers admits for some players it will be about the bottom line of how much money is on offer, but he will tell every player he tries to sign that at City they can become a real footballer.

“In terms of right now, we have a really talented squad that will play consistently in a style and intensity that top players want to play,” he said.

“Top players want the ball and then they want the ball back, and that is an identity we want to create over time, of which players here and the ones we bring in will have that profile to do.

“Then going forward you look at the ambition of the training facility because every good player wants to get better, regardless of their age.

“We are going to move into one of the best training grounds in the world and that is so exciting as a development coach. That is a huge selling point.

“Now, if it is about money and other factors, which we all understand because for many footballers it is about game time and money, let’s not get away from that, but there are other factors in terms of development and this will be a great proposition for you here.

“Some players it will be for other reasons but here there will be a great purpose to what we are doing, a great training facility and a wonderful place to live here in terms of Leicestershire as a county because it is absolutely stunning.

“You can come here and develop and become a real footballer.

“Sometimes in the Premier League you can get carried away with all the other stuff around it, but the bottom line is you are here to be a player and maximise your career, and you will get the chance to do that if you want to improve.”
