Leicester City manager Craig Shakespeare reveals that he has held talks with Demarai Gray over his future at the club and believes that he is "happy" to stay.

Leicester City manager Craig Shakespeare has insisted that Demarai Gray is "happy" at the club, having held talks with the youngster regarding his lack of game time.

Gray made 41 appearances for the Foxes across all competitions last season, but just 14 of those were from the start and the winger was understood to be considering leaving the club in search of more regular first-team football.

Bournemouth have reportedly seen a £20m offer for the 21-year-old turned down, and Shakespeare revealed that he has given assurances that Gray will get more game time if possible next season.

"[Gray's representatives] came in to have a meeting with the director of football, I wasn't privy to that," he told reporters.

"We've had conversations, myself and Dimi. It is well documented. We have spoken about trying to give him more game-time and we are both happy with that."

Gray has also been linked with the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Everton and Borussia Dortmund.
