Leicester keen on 20-year-old Lorient winger Dango Ouattara as Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers looks to add more firepower to steer his side clear of Premier League relegation fight

Leicester City have asked about Lorient winger Dango Ouattara.

Brendan Rodgers is eager to stave off the threat of relegation by adding to his squad this month - and the 20-year-old Burkina Faso international has impressed scouts this season.

A winger is high on Leicester's priority list in January and Ouattara is viewed as one of Europe's most exciting young players.
