Leicester, Newcastle and Crystal Palace all chasing ex-Liverpool defender Kabak

Clubs are queuing for former Liverpool defender Ozan Kabak.

The German club's relegation from the Bundesliga and Kabak's poor form look set to wreck their chances of making a profit on the 21-year-old.

Schalke allowed him to join Liverpool on loan in January for just £1m - with the hope the Reds would secure his permanent transfer for an extra £17m.

An underwhelming stint at Anfield, consisting of just 13 appearances, meant Jurgen Klopp refused the option to enact his purchase clause.

BILD says a number of clubs are tentatively interested in a deal.

They include Leicester, Newcastle and Crystal Palace, plus French teams Nice and Rennes.

It is speculated that a bid of £13m should be enough to tempt a transfer.
