The Premier League is a volatile place where players can be sold, loaned, or released at any moment's notice, but players often return to their old clubs amid the chaos of trying to find a new one. While considering their next career move, footballers can return to their old haunts to keep their fitness up. Mail Sport looks at the other players who have recently moved back to Cobham to train with their former clubs, after former Chelsea left-back Ryan Bertrand returned to Cobham to train this summer.

According to reports, Ryan Bertrand has returned to train with former Chelsea as he looks for a new club. Since his deal with Leicester in the Championship ended earlier this summer, the 34-year-old defender has been without a club.

Leicester boss Enzo Maresca is keen to shed comparisons to Pep Guardiola and make his own name in coaching as he looks to launch the Foxes back into the Premier League

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 29, 2023
Any comparisons to Pep Guardiola could start to annoy the new Leicester boss in a matter of minutes in Enzo Maresca's firm. The Italian, who won the Treble as assistant manager at Manchester City, aims to make his own name in coaching. We should be discussing Leicester's relegation just seven years later as one of England's biggest upsets in recent history. There is seldom a dull day at the King Power Stadium, but Maresca is determined to instill calm. Maresca's playing team has undergone a makeover in less than a month as their new coach, ahead of their first Championship season in more than a decade. For large fees, James Maddison and Harvey Barnes were out, while senior pros Jonny Evans and Ryan Bertrand were left for nothing. Conor Coady and Harry Winks, a former England international, joined young Danish keeper Mads Hermansen and highly rated Calum Doyle, who is on loan from Manchester City.

Youri Tielemans is also among those leaving, having revealed his departure on Instagram last week after joining Monaco in 2019.

Southampton wasn't up for surviving scrap because of divisions, inability, and inexperience

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 14, 2023
DANIEL MATTHEWS: The statement was released just a few hours after Southampton's fate was decided. It was all of the usual platitudes: the inevitable 'disappointment' at relegation following Fulham's loss. The call for 'unity' has been raised. The nod to everybody's "tireless" jobs. The acknowledgement (or excuse?) The Premier League is the most competitive league in the country,' says the league.' The promise to 'learn' lessons has been fulfilled.' Change is in the works, and better days are ahead.

Leicester AREN'T showing any heart for the battle in the Premier League's relegation scrap

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 14, 2023
If Everton somehow get something against Manchester City today, the Foxes could be three points adrift of security by the time they host Liverpool on Monday. Of course, victories will not depose Leicester from the relegation zone. When Maddison grumbled after the Fulham defeat that the players lacked hunger, regardless of how stringently he attempted to clarify his comments, is it any wonder many who follow them are resigned to their fate?

Since being fired, Brendan Rodgers has left a mixed legacy at Leicester City

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 3, 2023
JAMES SHARPE: Leicester City fans have finally heard what they want. They had banners and sung songs, but Brendan Rodgers had to lose his position in order for the Foxes to fall into the relegation zone. Defeat to Crystal Palace for the last kick of the game on Saturday, when they were defeated 31 to three by a Roy Hodgson team, leaving them 18th. The victory by West Ham puts them 19th in the top ten places in the world. One point from their last six years. This is the eighth World Cup appearance. Since the team's return of the league, it has been the worst team in the division since the start of the season.

Leicester has reported losses of more than £100 million, but there is still plans to start a summer rebuilding

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 7, 2023
Leicester will re-start a summer squad rebuilding their position after losing nearly £100 million. The new set of results, which cover a 12-month period ending in May 2022, show a pre-tax loss of £92.5 million, although they do not include the £75 million sale of Wesley Fofana to Chelsea, which was announced last August. However, they continue to lay bare the truth of the situation at Leicester, who are fighting for Premier League resurrection this season and are aiming for a squad upgrade at the end of the season.

TOM COLLOMOSSE: Leicester's FA Cup loss reveals the breadth of the rebuild that will be needed this summer

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 1, 2023
TOM COLLOMOSSE: Director's attention and audience reaction should inform the Leicester board that a major rebuilding job is imminent this summer. Leicester and Blackburn are battling for promotion from the Championship, with just ten places between them, but the Foxes' second string will do well to finish mid-table in the second tier. Very few will be able to play in an enterprising Rovers side, whose 2-1 victory at King Power Stadium on Tuesday guaranteed their first appearance in eight years. Although manager Brendan Rodgers is far from blameless in this season's struggles, he has been calling for the squad to be re-loaded ever since Leicester were defeated by Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup in January 2022. It has to happen now, not under new recruitment manager Martyn Glover.

Victor Kristiansen, a Danish U21 international, is in talks with Leicester City over a £6 million contract. As a result of their availability in defence, the Foxes are targeting the FC Copenhagen left-back, with James Justin, Jonny Evans, Riho Pereira, and Ryan Bertrand all missing due to injuries. Throughout this season, the 20-year-old has made 24 appearances for the Danish side in all competitions, with six of whom have played in the Champions League.

Brendan Rodgers calls on Leicester to show better 'determination and perseverance' against Tottenham

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 15, 2022
In the Premier League, the Foxes will face Tottenham on Saturday, bottom and winless. They came off the back of a 5-2 victory at Brighton, with last week's tour of Aston Villa postponed due to the Queen's death. Leicester's difficulties are in comparison to their previous top-four challenges, and Rodgers needs his players to step up after five straight defeats. "We're in a situation we hadn't been in before," he said. While the results haven't been in accordance with our plan, we must remain brave. You may be on your game and lose that ferocious, but you can't do that. It's all about attitude, and that's something we've discussed. Every single day, we talk about it.'

Why it's all gone wrong for Leicester's winless start to the season

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 2, 2022
Leicester City were not that long ago the club that no one outside of England's top class aspired to be. A shining example of hope that you did not need an oligarch or a nation state to do great things. Not just for the 2016 miracle. Beyond that, this was a club that took great pride in being on the back row of the big boys' bus, where they did not belong. One that lost key players but enhanced with it, while another with a respected coach full of exciting talent, is all part of a well-run company. An FA Cup and a Community Shield have all been awarded for top finishes, as well as a two-placed ones. And here they are, at the bottom of the table. Manchester United's loss was another limp display. One point from five games. Four consecutive losses in the League. They are a team devoid of hope, with fans dissatisfied and a boss criticizing his owners.
