Leicester City have set their sights on Super Eagles shot-stopper Arthur Okonkwo, according to recent reports. The Nigerian international has been turning heads with his performances in the Sky Bet Championship, playing for Wrexham last season.
The 24-year-old’s current deal at Wrexham has less than a year remaining, leaving his future up in the air. With the club allegedly pursuing Sunderland’s Anthony Patterson, Okonkwo could find himself slipping down the pecking order.
Sources indicate that Leicester are keen to secure the former Arsenal academy product. However, the Foxes’ relegation to League One might make them a less appealing option for the talented goalkeeper.
Aside from Leicester, Derby County, Bristol City, and Watford have also been linked with Okonkwo, suggesting a competitive transfer battle ahead.
