Portsmouth striker Hirst admits talks with Leicester must be held

Leicester City striker George Hirst admits he needs to consider his future this summer.

The 23-year-old is currently on loan at Portsmouth and has scored 10 goals in League One since November, putting him at the top of manager Danny Cowley's summer wishlist.

"There's obviously conversations to be had in the summer," Hirst told The News. "I want to put as many points on the board as possible and win as many games as possible. I want to score as many games as possible.

"I guess with any player there could be conversations to be had in the summer when we get to it. I try not to listen to all the talk and can't really get involved in things like that myself. I let my agent and the club deal with stuff like that.

"I don't really know of any conversations which have taken place, personally, to be honest. That's not to say they've not been had, though. Maybe it's one to ask the gaffer about. But if I keep scoring the goals things will take care of themselves."
