Agent: "Many clubs" interested in Kasper Schmeichel

The agent of Kasper Schmeichel, Mads Frederiksen, has claimed that "many clubs" are interested in signing the Leicester City goalkeeper.

The 27-year-old, son of Manchester United legend Peter, is out of contract at the end of the season.

"Kasper has played on a very high level for a long time, and we can also notice a lot of interest from many clubs," The Mirror quotes Frederiksen as saying. "His performance [for Denmark] against England doesn't make the interest smaller.

"From a commercial perspective, it opens up some great opportunities for Kasper in relation to personal sponsorships, so it's a very exciting time for him."

Schmeichel joined Leicester from Leeds United in 2011.
