Leicester City are moving for AS Monaco midfielder Sofiane Diop.

The Sun says Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers is also investigating a move for Monaco left winger Diop, who is available for around £20million.

The 21-year-old Frenchman, has emerged as one of the best prospects in Ligue 1 this season.

The youngster had 30 appearances for Monaco, scoring six goals and notching five assists.

The technically-gifted attacking midfielder thrived on the wing for the third-placed team.

Diop made his first team debut in the 2018/19 season and even started a couple of Champions League ties.
