According to reports from the Mirror (printed edition, 6 November, page 51), Leicester City have joined the race to sign Spanish international Diego Llorente from Real Sociedad in the January transfer window.
The Foxes are doing extremely well in the Premier League this season, and are looking to make a marquee signing that could help them finish in the top four this season.
The report claims that Brendan Rodgers’s side are heavily interested in signing Llorente, with a club-record £45 million addition lined up.
Real Sociedad are joint top of La Liga this season along with Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Llorente has been one of the key performers for them.
