REVEALED: Leicester could've signed Villarreal sensation Vietto for chump change

Leicester City could boast Villarreal sensation Luciano Vietto on their books this season.

The Daily Mail says the 21-year-old was offered to Leicester City for £3.5m last summer but they were unsure about taking a gamble on a young forward from Racing Club who was untried in the English leagues.

He has scored six goals in his last six games and is now rated in the £12m bracket after helping propel Villarreal to fifth in La Liga.

Liverpool and Arsenal are now monitoring his situation.
