Leicester City have been offered Middlesbrough midfielder Gaston Ramirez.

The Daily Star says Middlesbrough have offered to sell the Uruguayan, 26, to the Foxes for around £10m.

But Leicester have turned down the deal despite pressing hard to sign Ramirez in January.

The winger had a transfer request rejected by Boro in January as he tried to force through a move to the East Midlands.

They are now keen to offload him from their wage bill following relegation for the Premier League.
