AC Milan forward Niang on Leicester radar

Leicester City are eyeing AC Milan forward M'Baye Niang according to reports.

Sky Sport Italia suggests the Foxes are still hunting for a new attacker to assist Jamie Vardy and 21-year-old Niang has appeared on their radar.

The former France U21 international returned from a foot injury in November and has since appeared 10 times in Serie A for Sinisa Mihajlovic, scoring twice in a 4-1 win over Sampdoria.

Leicester have seemingly dropped their interest in CSKA Moscow's Ahmed Musa and could now make a late play for Niang who has spent time on loan with Montpellier and Genoa since joining the Rossoneri from Caen in 2012.
