By Daniel Lewis, Senior Reporter | 08 March 2016

Leicester City have reportedly joined the race to lure FC Midtjylland attacker Pione Sisto to the Premier League this summer.

The Foxes face stern competition from top-flight rivals West Ham United, who have already declared an interest in the 21-year-old.

According to The Sun, Leicester could cash in on their incredible season by beating the Hammers to the signature of the versatile Denmark international.

Sisto, also linked with a move to Borussia Dortmund, Valencia and Ajax in recent weeks, caught the eye during his side's recent two-legged affair with Manchester United in the Europa League.

The Midtjylland ace scored a goal in each leg, but it was not enough to prevent United from progressing through to the next round.

Leicester top the Premier League table by five points, with just nine games now left to play.
