Leicester City’s deal to sign Dragovic from Bundesliga outfit Bayer Leverkusen is reportedly under threat from Premier League duo Everton and West Ham
Leicester City fans would love to see Aleksandar Dragovic commit his future to Leicester City this summer.
The Austrian defender took a long time to get going at the King Power Stadium but quickly became a real favourite among Foxes fans once he was belatedly given an opportunity by Claude Puel. It is understood that Leicester have the option to make his loan move from Bayer Leverkusen permanent for £15 million but have delayed in doing so – meaning other clubs have been awoken from their slumber.
Everton must sign a centre-back this summer after a dreadful season in which they shipped goals at an alarming rate, particularly with The Mirror reporting that Ashley Williams and Ramiro Funes-Mori are up for sale.
West Ham, however, had the worst defensive record in the Premier League in 2017/18 so you can see why they would be keen on strengthening their backline with Dragovic’s arrival.
Though if Everton or West Ham do strike a deal with Leverkusen, this clearly won’t go down well in Leicester.
