Nice willing to offload Schmeichel with Leicester return mooted

Nice are prepared to cut loose Kasper Schmeichel this summer.

The Dane left Leicester City last summer for Nice, where he has established himself as their first-choice keeper.

However, L'Equipe says OCGN would be prepared to see either Schmeichel or fellow keeper Marcin Bulka, formerly of Chelsea, depart this summer.

A return to Leicester has been raised by Schmeichel in recent days. He said only last week: “I don't think my chapter with Leicester will ever end.

“I still say we, the club will always be a part [of me].

“I came to Leicester as a young man needing a home and needing somewhere to be accepted for who I was and not for what everyone else thought I should be. Leicester gave me that, and even after 11 years there's still something unwritten for me there."
