Leicester in for Aleksandar Dragovic?
Leicester City are set to lodge a formal bid for Dynamo Kiev defender Aleksandar Dragovic having failed in their pursuit of Burnley centre-back Michael Keane.
Premier League newcomers Burnley have been reluctant to sell Keane this summer despite the Foxes willing to pay as much as £15m for his services.
According to The People, the English champions will launch an attempt for Dragovic with manager Claudio Ranieri seemingly frustrated with the lack of additions to his backline.
Robert Huth and Wes Morgan are currently in the latter stages of their careers, and the need for a youthful back-up remains the Foxes' top priority this month.
Dragovic, 25, has earned 38 caps for Austria since making his debut against Serbia in 2009.
Premier League rivals Manchester United and Arsenal have been previously credited with interest for the tough-tackling centre-back.
