According to Tuttosport, new Leicester City signing Caleb Okoli is trying to convince Matias Soulé to join him at the King Power Stadium, but the Foxes have not yet matched Juventus‘ asking price.
Leicester City are strongly interested in Juventus winger Soulé and Tuttosport confirms that they are on the verge of making a formal offer to the Old Lady.
The latest report from Tuttosport claims that new Leicester City signing, the Italian Okoli, has been in touch with Soulé to explain the club’s ‘ambitious’ plans and persuade him to join the Foxes.
Okoli and Soulé spent the last season on loan at Frosinone.
According to the report, Leicester City are ready to offer Juventus €25m plus €5m add-ons, but the Serie A giants are waiting for bids between €35m and €40m for the Argentinean winger who scored 11 league goals last term.
At the same time, the proposal for the 21-year-old is €3m-a-year contract for the next five seasons.
Soulé has started the pre-season with Juventus and the Bianconeri fans have urged him to remain at the Allianz Stadium beyond the summer.
