Leicester City are battling to land Bordeaux midfielder Clement Chantome.

The People says the Foxes are aiming to sign £3million-rated French midfielder Chantome before the transfer deadline.

Chantome, 28, has been on the Foxes' radar for months, especially as he is out of contact at Bordeaux this summer.

However, Bordeaux are playing hardball having already sold Henri Saivet to Newcastle and Wahbi Khazri to Sunderland.
