​Leicester likely to rival Chelsea for Porto fullback Alex Telles

Leicester City are emerging as a suitor for highly sought after left back Alex Telles.

The Porto man is in demand, as he has refused to sign a new deal with the Portuguese club.

Porto want to cash in on Telles, and Four Four Two suggests the Foxes and Chelsea are the two Premier League clubs that will push hard to sign him.

Leicester are in the market for a left back in the summer, as they believe Ben Chilwell could be bound for Manchester City.

Given the Foxes will likely have Champions League football next season, they could tempt Telles with a significant contract offer.

European clubs such as Juventus are also interested in the full back.
