Manchester United full-back Luke Shaw 'wanted by Leicester as Ben Chilwell replacement' with Red Devils wanting to turn profit on £30m man

Leicester are reportedly eyeing up Manchester United's out of favour full-back Luke Shaw as a long-term replacement for Ben Chilwell.

Chilwell, 23, has become one of the country's best defenders during recent seasons at the King Power, and has been heavily linked with a move to Frank Lampard's Chelsea.

Planning for a potential big money departure of Chilwell, Leicester will look to 24-year-old Shaw to fill the gap, according to reports.
