Leicester City valuate £40m claim over Man Utd and Brighton main target

Carlton Palmer believes Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall should be valued at £40 million by Leicester City, with Manchester United and Brighton circling.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is arguably Leicester City’s most valuable financial asset following the departures of Harvey Barnes and James Maddison last summer, and the Foxes could need to raise significant funds before the end of June.

The midfielder has already proved how vital he is to Leicester’s promotion push this year with his performances dazzling so far in the Championship, where his overall goal contributions have underlined his quality. If Leicester were to find themselves in the promotion picture, then their best midfielder was always going to be pivotal to that.

The 25-year-old is a player who is surprisingly gracing the Championship this term, with many expecting him to have gained a move back to the top-flight over the summer. That’s quite clearly Leicester’s gain, though. The midfielder is guaranteed to dominate games this term under Enzo Maresca.

However, given Leicester’s financial position, paired with Dewsbury-Hall’s form, there were always likely to be suitors in the league above, and Manchester United are the latest side who are set to join the race to sign him this summer.

According to 90min, the Premier League side are exploring the possibility of a deal with Leicester City for the midfielder. Dewsbury-Hall has also previously been linked with the likes of Brighton and Liverpool.

The midfielder has contributed an impressive 10 goals and 13 assists in 41 games in all competitions for the side as they fight the likes of Leeds United and Ipswich Town for a top two spot in the table, and it was no surprise to see Premier League interest in the January window.
