Leicester City’s effort to sign Walace Silva looks to be pretty much over. The Brazilian is set to fly in for a medical with Hamburg, and complete a move to the German club, report Bild.
In December, a source close to a possible Walace transfer confirmed to Sport Witness that it was more than just a rumour, and some kind of talks were ongoing over a potential move to Leicester City.
At the time the Brazilian media priced a move at €10m, but Sport Witness were informed a fee of €8m to €9m would be acceptable. On that note, Bild, a day after claiming a fee as high as €15m, now say the actual price is €9m.
It now looks certain that Leicester City have lost out on the versatile 21 year old midfielder.
