Leicester have launched talks with Sassuolo over a sensational move for winger Domenico Berardi in the January transfer window.
The sought-after winger was one of the stars of Euro 2020 and played a crucial role in making Italy champions.
The Foxes had made their interest in Berardi clear in the summer transfer window, but reportedly had a £35million bid turned down. But now they are in the box seat to sign Berardi in this winter, according to Calcio Mercato.
The Italian outlet reports that Brendan Rodgers' side have opened 'in-depth talks' over Berardi, with the 27-year-old reportedly having told Sassuolo that he wants to leave the club.
