Leicester City transfer target Robin Koch reportedly wants £30,000 per week from his new club.

The Freiburg central defender has been linked with a move to Leicester City and Premier League rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers and Norwich City.

City are after a defender to replace Harry Maguire, who departed the King Power Stadium in the summer, despite the form of Caglar Soyuncu and Jonny Evans this season.

Brendan Rodgers' side have been forced to abandon their pursuit of Juventus defender Merih Demiral after he suffered a serious knee injury last week, with Jannik Vestergaard at Southampton emerging as a target today.

Koch, meanwhile, was first mentioned as a target for City in November after making his debut for Germany the month before.

The 23-year-old has made 18 League appearances for Freiburg this season, who are battling it out in the top half of the Bundesliga.

Rated at £15 million, Koch has demanded that any team that takes him on pay him just over £2m per annum - around £30,000 a week.

Those claims come from Portuguese media outlet A Bola, with Benfica also linked with the former Kaiserslautern man.

Koch started his career with Eintracht Trier before moving to Kaiserslautern and then on to Freiburg.

He has made 68 career appearances in Germany's top flight.
