Leicester City have eyed up a potential move for Brighton & Hove Albion goalkeeper Robert Sanchez in the upcoming transfer window, according to a report.
The Foxes are potentially on the lookout for a new number one goalkeeper in the summer due to the uncertain future of current first choice Kasper Schmeichel.
With the Dane entering the final 12 months of his contract this summer, and Leicester failing to qualify for European football next season, it has been reported in recent weeks that the 35-year-old may look to leave the King Power Stadium.
As a result, The Telegraph are reporting that Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers is interested in a move for Brighton's Sanchez, who has impressed since breaking into the first team during the 2020-21 campaign.
However, the report outlines how the Seagulls are likely to demand a significant transfer fee for the 24-year-old, with the Spain international currently having three years left on his current deal.
Sanchez has made 63 Premier League appearances over the last two campaigns, and following his impressive form, he was selected to make his debut for Spain in the 4-0 win over Georgia back in September.
