Leicester frontrunners to land Liverpool flop in bargain deal
Leicester City have been active in the summer transfer window by making four signings.
The Foxes have signed Michael Golding, Caleb Okoli, Abdul Fatawu and Bobby De Cordova-Reid and they are expected to add more players to the squad as they prepare for the new Premier League season.
The newly promoted side have faced a difficult summer after manager Enzo Maresca and midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall both left the club to join Premier League giants Chelsea.
Steve Cooper has been brought to take charge of the club but they need a few more players in order to confirm their Premier League safety next season.
Leicester are targeting a move for former Liverpool midfielder who flopped miserably at Anfield.
According to Tutto Sport, the Premier League club is looking to sign Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo.
The Brazilian central midfielder only played for 13 minutes for Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool during his loan spell at Anfield.
The midfielder has revived his career after an impressive loan spell at Fiorentina and that has caught the attention of Leicester manager Cooper.
Everton are also in the race to sign the Brazilian midfielder and the report has mentioned that both Premier League clubs are under ‘ongoing discussions’ with the Italian side to find more information about the possibility of signing the player.
After the departure of Dewsbury-Hall, there is a void in the Leicester midfield that needs to be filled before the start of the new season.
