​Leicester join Nice, Monaco in battle for Celtic attacker Christie

Leicester City and French sides Nice and Monaco are the three clubs chasing Celtic midfielder Ryan Christie.

The 26-year-old Scotland international is currently playing at Euro 2020, as his side prepares for a do-or-die group game with Croatia on Tuesday.

According to the Daily Mail, Christie has not committed to a new contract with Celtic, which means this summer may be the club's final chance to get a fee for his signature.

New boss Ange Postecoglou will soon be in Scotland ready to take on the Celtic job, and he will have to work quickly to sort out Christie's future.

Despite failing to secure Odsonne Edouard from Celtic, it appears Leicester will push to try and Christie from the Scottish giants.
