The Times report on Wednesday Brady is a target for Claudio Ranieri’s Foxes, who lifted an unlikely title last season and will compete in the Champions League this coming campaign.

Brady has two years left on his existing Carrow Road deal and would command a fee well in excess of the reported £7m Norwich paid Hull City 12 months ago. The 24-year-old is currently part of the Irish squad at Euro 2016 but had an impressive debut season at Carrow Road despite City’s top flight relegation.

The former Manchester United trainee finished runner-up in the player-of-the-year voting to Jonny Howson and underlined his versatility operating down the left flank.

City chief Alex Neil has made it clear he is under no financial pressure to sell his top talent but the likes of Brady and Nathan Redmond will be coveted by Premier League suitors ahead of the official opening of the transfer window next month.
