According to reports from Catalan newspaper Sport, Leicester City and West Ham have joined Everton in the race to sign Barcelona defender Yerry Mina this summer.

The 23-year-old joined Barcelona from Palmeiras in January for a reported fee of £10 million, but having failed to make an impact for the Catalan giants he could be already on the move.

Furthermore, with Barcelona signing Sevilla’s Clement Lenglet on Thursday, they have bolstered their defence, which means Mina will drop further down the pecking orders at the club.
