Harry Maguire on Leicester radar

Hull City defender Harry Maguire has reportedly been earmarked as a top option for Leicester City ahead of this summer's transfer window.

The 24-year-old has put a series of impressive performances for the Tigers during the ongoing campaign after manager Marco Silva opted to offer him a run in the central defensive role.

With the Tigers no longer in the Premier League, they appear set to cash in on their leading defender in the summer, and this has captured the attention of Leicester.

According to The Mirror, the Foxes are eager to lure the Englishman to the King Power Stadium amid the uncertainty over the future of Wes Morgan.

Morgan had captained the club to a historic league title last term which in turn earned them a Champions League run, but it seems that he may be on the move this summer.

Recently-promoted Newcastle are also in the hunt to sign Maguire, who is likely to cost a fee of around £8m in the transfer window.
