The Leicester City youngster could be heading for the exit door this summer.
According to a report from the Sun, five Premier League clubs want to sign Leicester youngster Alex Pascanu this summer, although it does not specify which clubs.
The 20-year-old has been with the Foxes since he was just eight-years-old, but he’s still yet to make a senior appearance for the east Midlands outfit.
The Romanian centre-back has just one year remaining on his deal at the King Power Stadium, and unless he agrees terms on a new deal, it would make sense to sell him this summer.
The Sun claims that five Premier League clubs have already inquired about Pascanu this summer.
The British tabloid goes on to say that Brendan Rodgers rates the Romanian youngster very highly, and sees him as the long-term successor to Wes Morgan at the heart of Leicester’s back-line.
Much will depend on how much the Northern Irishman actually wants to keep the centre-back, however, and should Leicester receive a decent offer for his services, he might well be moved on before the start of the new campaign.
