Leicester boss Eriksson expects to miss out on West Brom, Newcastle target Long

Leicester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson feels they have little chance of landing Reading striker Shane Long.

With the likes of West Bromwich Albion, Sunderland, Everton and Newcastle United also linked - Eriksson fears the lure of the top-flight will win the day for the Reading man.

"Long is one on the list but he may end up in the Premier League," said Eriksson.

"We are working on one or two more and if we do that it's going to be a big name."
