Leicester target Man Utd midfielder Lingard as Maddison replacement

Leicester City are eyeing Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard.

The Foxes are lining up Lingard as a potential replacement for James Maddison should the Englishman leave for Arsenal.

Lingard is seen as an ideal replacement for Foxes ace Maddison.

Football.london says Arsenal still remain way off Leicester's £60million valuation of Maddison.

But with Joe Willock set to join Newcastle United for £25m, more funds could be available to try and tempt the Foxes to part ways with the 24-year-old.

And should Arsenal stump up the cash for creative midfielder Maddison, Lingard is a potential replacement.
