Leicester City and Arsenal are among the teams being linked with a move for Empoli's Samuele Ricci.

The midfielder caught the eye with his performances in Serie B, according to Serie B news in Italy.

The report claims that Empoli have put a £15 million price tag on his signature.

Both Leicester and Arsenal are still interested, while AC Milan and Napoli in Italy are also in the mix.

A report in La Nazione suggests the two English clubs are talking with the player's agent, Federico Pastorello.

Not only does Pastorello represent Ricci, but Leicester goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is also his client.
