Leicester City have been told to up their offer for Sampdoria midfielder Dennis Praet.

The Foxes have offered €18m for the Belgium international, but must go higher to land the player.

ANSA says Samp are demanding €25m to sell Praet and are continuing talks with the Foxes about a sale.

Leicester have just splashed out £40m to sign Youri Tielemans from Monaco and are pushing to add Praet to their midfield.

With the pending sale of Harry Maguire, Leicester will have the cash available to meet Samp's asking price.
