​Kasper Schmeichel has set his sights on a move away from the King Power stadium this summer, despite having four years left on his current Leicester contract.





The goalkeeper, who is the favourite to be named the Foxes' Player of the Season, has 'let down' the club's ownership with his desire to move, according to the ​Mirror.

The Leicester ownership, headed by Thai businessman V ichai Srivaddhanaprabha, are unwilling to let the 30-year-old Dane leave, particularly after he signed a contract extension (without a release clause) to become the highest paid player - on a reported £100k a week - at the Foxes.





However, Schmeichel, who recently changed agents, reportedly feels his time at Leicester is coming to an end, with both Manchester clubs, Liverpool and Everton among those linked.





The desire to move on is likely to see the player face difficult talks with the club's management in the coming weeks, as the playing season winds down and the transfer window's reopening looms.

The son of Manchester United legend Peter Schmeichel has been one of few Leicester stars to actually further his reputation this season, as the Foxes' faltering campaign has seen his last line heroics displayed with more frequency.





Schmeichel has won the Danish Footballer of the Year for the last two years, and has kept 13 clean sheets from 37 games this season.
