Leandro Paredes
According to reports from Mediaset Premium (via Football Italia) Leicester have made a bid of £18.9 million for Roma midfielder Leandro Paredes.
The 22-year-old Argentine impressed during a loan spell with Serie A outfit Empoli last term, and would be a tremendous signing for the Foxes, should a move eventually materialise.
Meanwhile, The Sun have reported that Aston Villa are close to signing Leicester full-back Ritchie De Laet in a deal believed to be worth around £2.5 million.

In other transfer news, West Bromwich Albion have reportedly made an increased offer of £11.5 million for Jeffrey Schlupp, according to the Daily Mail.
