Ron-Robert Zieler is ready to leave Leicester City.

The Daily Mail says Zieler has asked to leave as the club line up Eldin Jakupovic from Hull City.

Zieler joined for £2.6million from Hannover last summer but has grown frustrated with his lack of opportunities and is weighing up a return to Germany.

Leicester, who will appoint Michael Appleton as assistant to Craig Shakespeare today, are looking to sign Jakupovic for £1.7million though Watford manager Marco Silva is also an admirer of the Swiss international who did well for him at Hull.
