Report: Leicester in Praet talks

By Football Italia staff

Leicester City are reportedly in talks to sign Sampdoria’s €25m-rated midfielder Dennis Praet.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport’s Nicolo Schira, contacts are ongoing between Leicester and Samp over Praet.

However, Schira warns that whereas the Foxes have offered €18m for the Belgian, the Blucerchiati want €25m.

The Premier League side have already spent over €70m on the likes of Ayoze Perez and Youri Tielemans this summer but could be about to receive around €90m from Manchester United for Harry Maguire.

The 26-year-old, for his part, played over 100 times in three seasons with Samp and has three caps for Belgium.
