Report: Leicester to move for Sagna

Leicester City are weighing up a move for experienced Premier League full-back Bacary Sagna, according to a report.

The 34-year-old is currently without a club after being released by Manchester City, where he spent three seasons upon joining from Arsenal in 2014.

Sagna has already been linked with the likes of Crystal Palace, Brighton & Hove Albion and West Ham United since departing the Etihad Stadium, but nothing has materialised.

The Manchester Evening News reports that Leicester have joined the race to sign the France international, who will provide competition for Danny Simpson at right-back.

Italian club Torino have also been touted as a possible destination for Sagna, meanwhile, having taken Joe Hart on loan from Man City last season.
