Leicester City are set to beat Arsenal to the signing of Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard.

The Times says Edouard, 23, wants to join Leicester.

He is keen to reunite with Brendan Rodgers at the King Power.

Rodgers, 48, brought Edouard to Celtic Park, initially on loan, back in 2017.

And the pair worked together successfully until the Northern Irishman left to join the Foxes in 2019.

The deal is expected to be sanctioned next week, after the Bhoys officially appoint Ange Postecoglou as new manager.
