Former Leicester City manager Claude Puel has been linked with the current Sporting Lisbon vacancy.

Sporting and Keizer agreed to part ways last week, with Under-23s coach Leonel Pontes taking over in the interim.

Keizer led Sporting to a League cup and domestic cup double last season, but finished 13 points adrift of winners Benfica in the League last season.

The Lisbon club sit three points off the early pacesetters Famalicao in the Primeira Liga after four matches so far, winning two games while losing and drawing a game each.

French Media outlet L'Equipe report Puel could be tempted by Sporting.

Puel has been out of work since he was sacked by City in February after a dismal 4-1 home defeat to Crystal Palace and was replaced by current incumbent Brendan Rodgers.

The former Southampton boss oversaw 67 matches during his time at the King Power Stadium , with a win percentage of 34.3.

He replaced Craig Shakespeare in October 2017.
