Leicester City defender Caglar Soyuncu has received widespread praise from the Premier League community having stepped into the void left by Harry Maguire and contributing to the Foxes currently having the best defensive record in the division. The Turkishr international is a no-nonsense, powerful central defender who’s stock is continuously rising.
These Leicester fans have reacted with humour to the way 23-year-old brushed off the challenge of Brighton and Hove Albion forward Neil Maupay.
I laughed when I saw this. Pushed him out of the way. Man’s a beast.

And his nickname of ‘the wall’ is starting to make more and more sense…

What do we think?
Strength is just one of the many brilliant attributes Soyuncu has in his locker. The Leicester City fans are head over heels about him and who can blame them when he’s turning in such commanding performances week in week out. His enthusiasm and dedication to the cause is clear even from the stands and if this player continues to develop, he could go all the way to the very top.
The Turkish international was heavily linked with a move to Arsenal prior to arriving in the East Midlands and they will be kicking themselves watching the players performances of late. The Gunners’ loss proved to be the Foxes’ gain and what a fantastic coup it was.
