The 26-year-old has been in impressive form for Coventry City scoring 10 goals and picking up 4 assists in all competitions this season. He helped his side reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup as well.
Leicester City have secured promotion to the Premier League and the opportunity to join them could be an attractive option for the player. Similarly, Aston Villa and West Ham will be attractive destinations for the midfielder as well. It remains to be seen where he ends up.
The Foxes need to improve their squad during the summer transfer window in order to ensure their survival in the top flight next season. Signing a goal-scoring midfielder should be one of their priorities. Callum O’Hare is at the peak of his powers and he will be determined to compete at a higher level. The opportunity to showcase his qualities in the Premier League will be quite exciting for him and signing him on a free transfer voter represent a major bargain.
Leicester City cannot afford to spend freely because of their financial limitations and signing the midfielder on a free transfer would allow them to improve the other areas of their squad as well.
