Leicester City have joined the battle for Swansea City attacker Gylfi Sigurdsson.

The Leicester Mercury says the Foxes will have to pay at least £40 million to tempt Swansea into even discussing a potential deal for star man Sigurdsson.

The Foxes are one of several clubs considering making a move for the Iceland international.

They face competition from Everton and his former employers Tottenham for the 27-year-old.

However, the Swans are determined to hang on to their talisman and only a staggering would even tempt into considering allowing him to leave.
