Leicester City's Craig Shakespeare Pulls Out All the Stops to Get Midfielder to Sign

Leicester City manager, Craig Shakespeare, has made the signing of a central midfielder his top priority and has reportedly identified Ludogorets PFK midfielder, Anicet, as his ideal signing before the transfer window shuts.

The Madagascan has been linked with the Foxes throughout the summer but speculation has intensified as the futures of Nampalys Mendy and potentially Danny Drinkwater lie elsewhere from the King Power Stadium.

It has been reported by FootMercato that Shakespeare has made great strides in signing his man by personally calling the midfielder who played in all of Ludogorets' Champions League games last season.
