Esteban Cambiasso is close to joining Greek champions Olympiakos but has also held talks with two unnamed Premier League clubs according to his father and agent, reports the Leicester Mercury.





The veteran midfielder decided not to renew his Leicester City contract last month and the Foxes have since moved on to Caen's N'Golo Kante, who arrived at the King Power Stadium in a £5.5m deal this week.





In the meantime, Carlos Cambiasso says he hopes to have an announcement soon regarding his son's new employers, with Olympiakos the favourites ahead of two English clubs and one Turkish club.





"​ It is true that there are advanced talks with Olympiakos for Esteban, but I cannot confirm that we have agreed," he said.





"In football, of course, things can change from day to day or even from hour to hour. Cambiasso is a free player and there is interest from other teams, I can tell you about two teams from the Premier League and Turkey."





West Ham, Aston Villa and Sunderland have all been linked with the former Real Madrid and Inter Milan player.





Cambiasso Senior added: "We continue to talk with everyone, we have not closed. Our talks with Olympiacos are well advanced and I hope soon to have announcements.





"Esteban is definitely keen to come to Greece and Olympiacos. It is a team that will play in the Champions League and this keeps him right now at the highest level.





"I cannot tell you about money or contract duration, these are issues to be resolved."
