Leicester City and Sevilla are reportedly ready to go head to head in the race to sign Schalke 04 defender Ozan Kabak.

Leicester City and Sevilla are reportedly prepared to do battle for the signature of Schalke 04 defender Ozan Kabak.

Despite having made a solid impression during a loan period with Liverpool last season, the Turkey international was allowed to return to his parent club.

Schalke, who have been relegated to the second tier of German football, are eager to part ways with the centre-back as soon as possible.

According to Calciomercato, Leicester and Sevilla have expressed the biggest interest in securing a deal for the 21-year-old.

The Foxes requires a replacement for Wesley Fofana, who has been ruled out until next year with the broken leg that he suffered in a pre-season friendly against Villarreal.

Meanwhile, Sevilla are considering alternatives to Jules Kounde, with the Frenchman being heavily linked with a switch to Chelsea.
