Leicester is poised to step up their bid to sign Jack Harrison as Brendan Rodgers seeks more attacking options before the transfer window closes.
The Foxes have already made inquiries for the Leeds winger, who has so far appeared undecided about whether to move to King Power Stadium and join another club in a relegation battle.
Harrison has 18 months left on his contract and was thought to be open to signing a new one.
Yet Sportsmail understands Leeds will listen to offers for the 26-year-old, who moved to Elland Road on a permanent deal in 2021 after successful loan spells from Manchester City.
Leicester has already signed one winger – the Brazilian Tete, who will be with the club until the end of the season, after cutting short his loan spell at Lyon, from Shakhtar Donetsk.
However, with Real Betis and Villarreal interested in Ayoze Perez, they are eager to add another.
The Foxes have already signed left-back Victor Kristiansen from Copenhagen and are pursuing Stoke center-back Harry Souttar for around £15 million.
Meanwhile, the club is unlikely to entertain bids for star player James Maddison until the summer.
Several clubs have expressed interest in the playmaker, whose contract expires at the end of next season.
Despite this, Leicester is determined to keep Maddison because his form is critical to their survival chances.
