The Championship
Completes move to Leicester
Lascelles has completed a permanent move from Newcastle United to Leicester City, his former club announced.
ANALYSIS
Lascelles made 253 appearances for Newcastle United, captaining the club from the Championship to the Champions League and establishing himself as one of the key leaders of the modern era. He joined from Nottingham Forest in 2014, broke into the starting XI during the 2015/16 season, and was named captain under coach Rafa Benitez despite relegation. Lascelles led the side to the 2016/17 Championship title and went on to become a regular Premier League presence while maintaining his leadership role. He also captained Newcastle in their historic 4-1 Champions League win over Paris Saint-Germain in October 2023 and lifted the Carabao Cup at Wembley despite missing last season through injury.

Making good progress
Lascelles (knee) is making good progress since returning to training but is unlikely to feature again this season unless there are injuries in the squad, coach Eddie Howe said in a press conference, according to the Northern Echo. "Jamaal is making good progress and I'm really pleased with how he looks since coming back to training. It has been a slow steady return - he's certainly not been rushed. Possible he could be involved before the end of the season but I think maybe it would depend on injuries with some of the other players within the squad. Maybe for Jamaal it would be better if it was next season. But if he feels good and he's done enough training then it's something we'll look at."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could change teams soon
Lascelles could leave Newcastle before the end of the January transfer window, according to The Newcastle Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
Once a key player for the Magpies, Lascelles is now a depth piece who rarely sees playing time. He's still good enough to play in the Championship or perhaps a lower-table Premier League club. Lascelles is free to leave Newcastle United if any club wants to sign him between now and the final days of the January transfer window.
