“Premier League side Leicester City are prioritising Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma, in the event that Nigerian international central midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is to depart the Foxes this summer,” the website was quoted as saying.
“Brighton are seeking €35m for the ex-Lille man, with other Premier League clubs interested in his services.
“The Leicester board view the arrival of Boubakary Soumaré as separate to the Ndidi situation and that the current Lille man, who is joining for €25m, including bonuses, is not seen as a replacement for the Nigerian.”
Ndidi, who linked up with the Foxes from Belgian Pro League outfit Genk in January 2017 has a contract with the FA Cup champions until 2024.
