Anderlecht defender Kara Mbodji is back on the radar of Premier League clubs.

The Croydon Advertiser says Crystal Palace and Leicester City look set to go head-to head for the signing of Mbodji this summer.

The Senegalese defender has turned in some impressive performances for the Belgian side during their run to the quarter-finals of the Europa League this season.

The 27-year-old was previously a summer transfer target for Premier League strugglers Sunderland, but an agreement could not be finalised, while Palace and Leicester also made moves for him in the January transfer window.

Just this week, Mbodji said: "England is one of my ambitions. In the past I have had the chance to go there, but then it did not happen."
