Leicester City are reportedly keen on signing the Juventus winger.
According to a report from Italian media outlet Tutto Juve, Leicester City are weighing up a summer bid for Juventus winger Marko Pjaca, and if Claude Puel is successful in is pursuit of the 23-year-old, what an absolutely phenomenal signing he would be for the Foxes.
The Croatian joined Juve in the summer of 2016 from Dinamo Zagreb, but he has failed to establish himself as a first-team regular in Turin.
That is not to say that he doesn’t still have a lot to offer at the very highest level, though.
Pjaca can play on either flank, and possesses exceptional technical ability. He plays with a certain kind of directness that would undoubtedly help Leicester improve upon the potency of their play in the final third, and his arrival at the King Power Stadium would surely give everyone a lift, especially after Riyad Mahrez’s recent exit.
The Juve star would be more than an adequate replacement for the Algerian, what with his abundance of skill, pace and a devilishly potent delivery.
Pjaca is available for somewhere in the region of £22 million this summer, according to the Mirror, and in today’s current market, that would represent excellent value for money for Leicester.
The Croatia international is a real talent, and with so many years left ahead of him, he could very well go on to become a superstar.
He would be a sensational signing for Leicester, if Puel does in fact manage to bring him to the club, and he could take the Foxes to an entirely new level.
