Leicester City eyeing Christian Kabasele as Harry Maguire replacement?

Leicester City are reportedly eyeing up Watford defender Christian Kabasele as a replacement for Harry Maguire this summer.

Leicester City have reportedly pinpointed Watford defender Christian Kabasele as a replacement for Harry Maguire this summer.

It was confirmed on Friday that Manchester United and Leicester City had agreed a £80m fee for the transfer of Maguire.

Kabasele, who joined Watford from Genk in 2016, has a contract offer on the table from Watford, with the 28-year-old's current deal set to expire in 2021.

According to RMC, Leicester view Kabasele as a potential replacement after finally losing Maguire to Old Trafford.

The Foxes have made three signings so far this summer, securing the signatures of Youri Tielemans, Ayoze Perez and James Justin for a combined total of £76m.

Leicester begin their 2019-20 Premier League campaign at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 11.
