La Liga side Sevilla have made an approach to sign Leicester City midfielder Adrien Silva, according to the Portuguese press.
Newspaper A Bola reports this afternoon that the Spanish side have made a first approach, and are now wondering about making an effort to sign the player in the January window.
The outlet says that Leicester City have responded showing their preference for a permanent transfer, and would have no desire to rush into negotiating a loan deal.
In case the loan deal is the only option the Foxes can get, then the interested club would have to cover 100% of Adrien Silva’s salary.
It’s claimed that Adrien Silva is the second option in Sevilla’s list, as the club have Napoli’s Marko Rog as their top target for the winter transfer window.
It’s worth recalling that A Bola featured an interview with Adrien Silva’s father today, and he had an interesting rant about the treatment Claudio Puel has been dishing out to his son.
