Leicester City are plotting a January move for Manchester United outcast Donny van de Beek.

The midfielder returned to Old Trafford over the summer having spent the second half of last season on loan at Everton.

Van de Beek's arrival back in Manchester saw him reunite with old Ajax boss Erik ten Hag and looked like giving him a new lease of life at the Theatre of Dreams.

But the Dutchman's international's struggles have continued during the early months of the season.

The Sun is reporting Leicester are interested and that he could come in as a replacement for Youri Tielemans, who could leave in January, with his contract expiring at the end of the season.
