Leicester City are reportedly prepared to do battle with Napoli in the race to sign Atalanta BC defender Timothy Castagne.

Leicester City reportedly face competition from Napoli in the race for Atalanta BC defender Timothy Castagne.

The 24-year-old has made a total of 19 appearances in Serie A and the Champions League this season, helping Atalanta to remain a force in both competitions.

However, with just over a year left on his contract, the Belgium international is attracting interest ahead of the next transfer window.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Napoli are prepared to rival Leicester in the race for the right-back's signature.

The report suggests that the Italian side are ready to make a bid of £17.5m, a fee which realistically remains in Leicester's price range given the sale of Harry Maguire last summer.

Castagne has previously acknowledged that he would be interested in a future move to the Premier League or Napoli.
