AFC Bournemouth and Leicester City are reportedly leading the chase to sign Championship starlet Demarai Gray.

The Premier League duo, who both defeated Chelsea and Swansea City respectively at the weekend, are both interested in offering the exciting Birmingham City winger a path into the English top-flight during the forthcoming January transfer window.

The 19-year-old, who is an England Under-20 international, has only managed to score one goal in all 19 league appearances for the Blues so far this season, who currently sit eighth in the standings.

However Gray; who only signed a new three-year contract with Gary Rowett’s side during the summer, is understood to have a buyout clause of £3.75m.
