Report: Arsenal, Aston Villa interested in Leicester City's Jeffrey Schlupp

Versatile Leicester City player Jeffrey Schlupp has attracted the attention of Arsenal and Aston Villa, according to reports.

The Ghana international enjoyed a fine debut season in the Premier League last season, winning the club's Young Player of the Year as well as the Players' Player of the Year award.

According to The Express, Arsenal are lining up a £5m bid for the 22-year-old, while Aston Villa are also considering throwing their name in the hat for the Foxes academy product.

Schlupp, who can play as both a left-back and as a forward, has spent his entire career at Leicester, aside from a nine-game loan spell at Brentford in 2011 where he scored six goals.
