Leicester boss Shakespeare admits Sagna interest

Leicester boss Craig Shakespeare has confirmed the club has spoken with free agent Bacary Sagna.

The former Arsenal right-back was released by Manchester City at the end of last season.

"We have looked at him before but we haven't spoken about him recently," said Shakespeare.

"We are aware of the situation. We will look at it and review.

"We are not sure of his situation so we would need to follow that up.

"We have good defensive cover at the moment and players who can cover in different positions but you always have to make sure that you are aware where the cover might come from if you have one or two injuries."
