Leeds United and Leicester City reportedly want to sign Ibai Gomez.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the release clause of Leeds United, Athletic Bilbao and Leicester City target Ibai Gomez is €10 million (£8.99m).

It has been reported by the Spanish publication that Leeds in the Championship and La Liga outfit Athletic are interested in signing Gomez from Alaves in the January transfer window.

AS has credited Premier League club Leicester City with interest in the 29-year-old, who can operate as a winger or as a forward.

Bargain signing

Gomez is a very good attacking player, and his versatility to play as a forward or as a winger makes him very valuable.

Given that the Spaniard is 29 years of age, a transfer fee of £8.99m is a bargain price.

The attacker has scored three goals and provided two assists in 15 La Liga appearances for La Liga so far this season, according to WhoScored.

During the 2017-18 campaign, Gomez made 26 starts and eight substitute appearances in the league for Alaves, scoring seven goals and proving six assists in the process, according to WhoScored.
