Leicester step up chase for Musa
Leicester are in talks with CSKA Moscow over striker Ahmed Musa,
but expect to face competition from a number of clubs, according to
reliable sources.
The 23-year-old has scored 10 goals in 29 games this season, and 11 in 56 international appearances for Nigeria.
Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri is keen to beef up his team’s
firepower as they prepare for the possibility of Champions League
football next season.
But it is understood that Leicester, who sit three points clear at
the top of the Premier League with 15 matches remaining, are not
prepared to meet CSKA’s £18m valuation.
Meanwhile, reports have revealed that Leicester have ended their interest in Sampdoria forward Eder.
The fee of around £10m was not thought to be an issue between the
clubs, but the player has revealed he wants to stay in Italy to further
his Euro 2016 chances, favouring instead a move to Inter Milan.
