Leicester, Luton join battle for Blackpool striker Jerry Yates

Blackpool striker Jerry Yates is wanted by a host of teams in England this summer.

The 26-year-old, who scored 14 goals in the Championship despite Blackpool's relegation, wants a move.

Per The Sun, Leicester City are among the teams assessing Yates at the moment.

Other clubs circling for his signature include Luton, West Brom, Coventry City, and Ipswich Town.

Since the futures of Jamie Vardy and Kelechi Iheanacho are uncertain at Leicester, a new forward is a priority.

The Foxes may see Yates as the ideal man to ensure they can push for promotion next season.
