Leicester City trump Aston Villa bid for Jordan Veretout?

Leicester City attempt to pip Aston Villa to the signing of Jordan Veretout, according to a report.

Leicester City have reportedly attempted to beat Aston Villa to the signing of Nantes midfielder Jordan Veretout.

The 22-year-old has been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur, while Liverpool are also said to have monitored him.

According to RMC, Villa made an offer of around £8.5m for Veretout but Premier League rivals Leicester have made a late bid of £10m.

The report adds that the France Under-21 international has agreed terms with Villa on a five-year contract.

Veretout has made 125 appearances for Nantes since making his debut in 2011.
