Leicester City to make bid for Leonardo Ulloa

Leicester City have agreed a 7.5 million GBP fee with Brighton and Hove Albion for Argentinian striker Leonardo Ulloa. The 27-year-old is expected in Leicester for contract talks this afternoon.

The 6 foot 3 striker is wanted as Leicester City's first choice forward for the upcoming campaign after an impressive season playing for the Foxes in the Championship. Prior to his move to Brighton, Ulloa had spells at Almeria, Castellon, Olimpio and San Lorenzo. 

Ulloa was an important reason why Brighton made the playoff's last season, with his 23 goals in 50 games pushing his club to the top half of the Championship table.
