Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers is ready to sell Nigeria forward Kelechi Iheanacho to sign Odsonne Edouard from Celtic in the summer transfer window.
It has been reported that Celtic value Edouard at £35 million, and that Leicester are planning to Iheanacho for £20 million to fund a move for the Frenchman this summer.
Rodgers worked with Edouard when e was in charge of Celtic, and the former Liverpool manager will know all about the former Paris Saint-Germain striker.
The 22-year-old scored 28 goals in all competitions for the Hoops this season.
Iheanacho has made seven starts and five substitute appearances in the Premier League for Leicester so far this season, scoring three goals and providing three assists in the process.
