Leicester City have joined the battle for Borussia Monchengladbach centre-forward Alassane Plea.

The Mirror says Manchester United and Leicester could be set to battle it out for Plea.

The striker has been involved in 15 of the club's goals this term - seven strikes and eight assists.

Monchengladbach are preparing themselves for offers but are eyeing a hefty fee for the Frenchman.

United are keeping tabs on a host of potential attacking options, although Jadon Sancho looks to be their main priority.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have regularly benefited from a potent and quick attack this term and Plea would be able to bolster their options.

But Leicester have a long standing interest in the 27-year-old which dates back to Claude Puel's spell in charge.
