Leicester City plotting James Chester hijack?

A report claims that West Bromwich Albion are facing late competition from Leicester City for the signature of Hull City's James Chester.

Leicester City have reportedly made a move to trump West Bromwich Albion in the race to sign Hull City defender James Chester.

Speculation earlier today claimed that the Wales international had left Hull's pre-season training camp in Austria to discuss a move to The Hawthorns with West Brom boss Tony Pulis.

However, according to the Yorkshire Post, Leicester have now registered their interest in the 26-year-old, who could now have two Premier League clubs to select from.

It is believed that Hull have demanded £8m from potential suitors for the centre-back, who scored twice in 27 appearances last term.
