Leicester City forward David Nugent is hoping his club makes a move for Doncaster Rovers striker Billy Sharp.

The Foxes have been credited with an interest in the 25-year old, who is also being linked with Fulham, and Nugent has implored his club to go after the 10-goal Rovers attacker.

"More the merrier," Nugent told the Leicester Mercury.

"We need competition for places.

"I heard we had an offer for Billy Sharp rejected but, if he does come in, then fair play, because he is a goalscorer.

"He is a six-yard-box tap-in player, and it is good to have competition."
