LEICESTER CITY are reportedly keen on signing Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka after his loan move at Manchester United was terminated.
Dubravka, 33, made just two Carabao Cup appearances for the Red Devils after joining in the summer and failed to make an appearance in the Premier League.
He appeared in cup wins over Aston Villa and Burnley, though was criticised by fans for his performance against the Clarets.
The keeper twice produced errors that almost led to a Burnley goal, sparking fury amongst the fanbase.
As a result, Toon decided to end his loan early, forcing United to bring forward their pursuit of Yann Sommer.
But his return to St James’ Park might not last long, as according to the Guardian, Leicester are keen on the former Newcastle No1.
