Liverpool hero Emile Heskey is backing a move for Leicester City defender Caglar Soyuncu.

The Turk's agent invited Liverpool to make an offer for the defender.

He told GentingBet: “Soyuncu would fit in well at any club.

“He's taken the role of centre back at Leicester, which was a very important role, following the footsteps of Wes Morgan and Johnny Evans, and no one knew what to expect of him.

“But he's taken it by the scruff of the neck and he's really improved and given something extra as well as he's good on the ball.

“I don't see him going anywhere, even Liverpool, as Leicester don't need to sell unless they want to and they don't have a ready-made player to fall into his spot.

“However, if Leicester did want to sell, Soyuncu could go to any of the top clubs."
