Leicester joins Saponara race

By Football Italia staff

Leicester City are but the latest team to be linked to a purchase of Empoli's Riccardo Saponara.

The attacking midfielder was already believed to be on the shopping list for Napoli and Real Betis, and now he has yet another international suitor.

According to ItaSportPress, the Foxes are considering a bid for Saponara, and they are willing to cover the €20m price-tag.

The signing might be conditional to the departure of Riyad Mahrez though, so not very much is certain at this stage.
