Leicester City to make move for Bournemouth forward Callum Wilson?

Leicester City have reportedly identified Bournemouth forward Callum Wilson as a priority signing in the summer.

The Foxes have replaced Claude Puel with Brendan Rodgers, and the Northern Irishman is expected to be provided with funds to make significant additions to his first-team squad.

According to The Sun, Wilson is at the top of the club's shortlist and a bid in the region of £40m could be made ahead of the next campaign.

Wilson has been linked with other teams in the Premier League - including Chelsea - but it remains to be seen whether any interested clubs will be prepared to pay big money for the striker's services.

The 27-year-old - who has a contract at the Vitality Stadium until 2022 - has contributed 10 goals and five assists from 21 top-flight outings this season.
