Leicester City to battle Leeds United for Alaves winger Ibai Gomez?

Alaves winger Ibai Gomez has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Leicester City.

Gomez is currently in his third campaign at the Spanish outfit, with three of his 15 goals for them coming in an impressive start to this season.

According to AS, the 29-year-old's form has led to interest from the Premier League, with Leicester said to be monitoring the player's performances ahead of the January window.

The Foxes may have to battle with Leeds United, who are said to be long-standing admirers of Gomez and who are also considering an approach at the midway point of the campaign.

Gomez's contract at Alaves - who sit in fourth place in the La Liga standings - expires in the summer.
