Leicester City are among several sides – comprising Newcastle United, Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and more – said keen on Bonne.
Leicester City are leading several clubs – including Newcastle United, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest – in the chase to sign Macauley Bonne, according to the Sun.
Bonne has scored 17 goals already for Leyton Orient this season, and is being tipped to become the latest non-league striker to star higher up the English football later. And he could follow in the footsteps of one such player, Jamie Vardy, by moving to Leicester.
But the 23-year-old’s form is also said to have alerted the Foxes’ Premier League rivals, Newcastle, Crystal Palace, Fulham and Huddersfield Town, along with the Championship quintet, Nottingham Forest, Norwich City, Sheffield United, Stoke City and Queens Park Rangers.
And the Sun claims Bonne is valued in the region £500,000 by Orient, who according to their manager, Justin Edinburgh, have no need to sell.
Bonne, who was born in Ipswich but has two caps for Zimbabwe, signed a new two-year deal with the London side at the start of this season.
But the prospect of a move up at least three divisions could appeal to the National League top scorer.
Leicester, Newcastle, Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest or other – what’s the best move for Bonne?
