Leicester City open talks with Jack Collinson

Premier League side Leicester City are opening talks with former West Ham midfielder Jack Collinson. The midfielder was released by Sam Allardyce last week after playing 121 games for the Hammers.

Collinson had been one of the Hammers' longest serving players but was deemed surplus to requirements by Allardyce last week.

After writing a heartfelt letter to the club's fans saying good bye, Collinson will now focus on the next step in his career.

According to a report on Sunday morning, Leicester City are the favourites to secure his signature.
