Hamza Choudhury: What on Earth Are We Supposed to Make of Him?

The departure of Hamza Choudhury ended a 21-year association with the Foxes having come through the academy, But despite him making over 150 appearances for the club, there are plenty of questions - but few answers - as to how to understand his time at Leicester City over the last decade.

I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to think about Hamza Choudhury leaving Leicester City after his departure to Sheffield United was confirmed earlier today, ending a 21-year association with the Foxes.

That probably sounds like a strange thing to say about a player who has been at the club since he was seven, made more than 160 appearances, won the FA Cup, won the Championship and even captained his boyhood club, but somehow that uncertainty sums up his Leicester career better than anything else.

On the one hand, there is plenty to admire. He's a local lad who came through the academy, supported Leicester as a kid and actually got to live the dream of playing for the club. He's played Premier League football, played in Europe, lifted a major trophy at Wembley and been part of some of the most important moments in Leicester's modern history.
