Bournemouth set to make £25million move for Leicester City's Patson Daka after the Foxes turn down loan offer from Everton for Zambian international

Bournemouth are set to step up their interest in Leicester City forward Patson Daka before the transfer window closes next week.

The Zambian international is valued at £25million by the Foxes, and a loan offer from Everton was turned down earlier in the summer.

Daka has not been involved in Leicester's squad for their last two Championship games and head coach Enzo Maresca has admitted to leaving some players out because of speculation about their futures.

The 23-year-old arrived at the King Power Stadium in June 2021 for a fee of £23million from Red Bull Salzburg.
