Leicester City eyeing Andros Townsend transfer swoop as Foxes plot £14m bid

Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers will test Crystal Palace’s resolve to keep Andros Townsend.

The winger has had another impressive season at Selhurst Park as Palace finished the Premier League season in 12th place.

And with just two years left to run on his contract, he is seen as a good option for the Foxes as Rodgers gets a first transfer window to start shaping his squad.

Townsend, 27, is valued at around £14million — similar to the figure Palace paid Newcastle to sign him three years ago.

He has scored 14 goals in 124 appearances during his time with the Eagles.
