A report claims that Nice midfielder Nampalys Mendy is a summer transfer target for Premier League champions Leicester City.

Leicester City are reportedly preparing a summer move for Nice midfielder Nampalys Mendy.

The Foxes, who won the Premier League title last season, will attempt to bring "three or four" new players to the King Power Stadium in the summer transfer window.

According to The Mirror, one of those on Claudio Ranieri's wish-list is 23-year-old Mendy, who joined Nice from AS Monaco in 2013.

The same report claims that Leicester wanted to sign the former France Under-21 international last summer, but instead opted for N'Golo Kante, who has been linked with a move to Arsenal in recent weeks.

Leicester finished 10 points clear at the top of the 2015-16 Premier League table.
