Leicester, Crystal Palace and Stoke target move for £7m Angers midfielder

Leicester City, Crystal Palace and Stoke City are reportedly targeting a January move for £7 million rated Angers midfielder Cheikh Ndoye.

The Senegal international has been one of the standout players for the Ligue 1 outfit, who currently lie second in the standings above the likes of Monaco, Marseille and Lyon, despite the fact that the club only achieved promotion last season.

With European football a realistic target for the aforementioned Premier League sides, all of them are looking to strengthen their squads and provide some extra competition for places in January, and have been alerted to the form of the 29-year-old, who is his side’s top scorer with five goals.

Claudio Ranieri’s Foxes especially know how successful it can be to buy midfielders from the French leagues, following the success of N’Golo Kante and Riyad Mahrez in recent years.
