AC Milan are keen on signing Florian Thauvin on a free transfer, and Leicester City are again being mentioned as competition.

The Marseille attacker’s contract expires at the end of June and therefore he’s going to be available on a free transfer. Sevilla have been credited with interest in the Spanish sport media, with the Foxes also credited with interest at that time.

Now, Il Milanista bring Leicester in when covering interest from the Rossoneri. They believe there’s no chance of Thauvin renewing with Marseille, and therefore Milan are preparing an offer for him.

That would see them pay the Frenchman €3m a year after tax. That’s a reasonable offer, yet there’s still worry about Brendan Rodgers’ side.

Leicester are said to be ‘moving’ to sign the Marseille player, unconvinced by Cengiz Under and unlikely to turn the AS Roma man’s loan into a permanent deal.

Thauvin has scored seven goals and added seven assists in 24 Ligue 1 matches so far this season.
