Report: Leicester, Stoke eye Niang move

Premier League duo Leicester City and Stoke City are both reportedly interested in signing AC Milan striker M'Baye Niang.

The 21-year-old has scored five Serie A goals this season, but is not expected to play again until the 2016-17 campaign after undergoing surgery on an ankle injury last month.

Nevertheless, according to Sky Sports News, both Leicester and Stoke want the striker to form part of their first-team squad for the new season and are prepared to test Milan's resolve with offers this summer.

Niang, who is also said to be interesting Borussia Dortmund, was strongly linked with a move to the Premier League in January, but ultimately remained at San Siro.
