Leicester City and Claude Puel appear to have identified their first transfer target ahead of the January transfer window, with Celta Vigo midfielder Brais Mendez the man reported to be of interest to Puel.
The Spaniard came off the bench on Sunday to score the winner on his international debut against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Foxes are understood to have registered their interest in the 21-year-old, with Cadena Cope via Football Espana alleging that Celta have rebuffed their initial approach - instead referring them to the €25m release clause that is written into his contract that runs until 2021.
