Leicester City prepare bid for Irish ace

According to The Mirror, Champions of England Leicester City are preparing a £7m bid for Norwich and Republic of Ireland winger Robbie Brady.

Brady scored two out of Ireland’s three goals at Euro 2016, the third coming from his Norwich City team mate Wes Hoolahan. His late winner against Italy secured them qualification for the knockout stages. He has impressed many people with his performances and versatility during the tournament.

Brady signed for Norwich after weeks of negotiations from Hull for a fee of £7m last summer. Since joining, he has made 36 appearances and scored three goals. He impressed fans enough in his maiden campaign that he was the runner-up for Player of the Season.

The promise of Champions League football may be too good an offer for 24-year-old Brady to turn down. In the minds of many, a Tuesday night would much rather be spent playing at the San Siro than playing combating hoof-ball in a rainy Rotherham.
