The interest comes amid talks involving a move for Foxes defender Wesley Fofana to the London-based club. Jacobs, however, reports that any movement for the Blues forward is likely to be separate from the Fofana negotiations, indicating that a swap deal is probably off the table. Ben Jacobs@JacobsBenLeicester are somewhat interested in Callum Hudson-Odoi but if there is any movement this would likely be discussed separately. Fofana wants the move but when he signed in March, the agreement was Leicester would listen to fair offers in 2023.890121Leicester are somewhat interested in Callum Hudson-Odoi but if there is any movement this would likely be discussed separately. Fofana wants the move but when he signed in March, the agreement was Leicester would listen to fair offers in 2023. The London-based club have been heavily linked with the French international this summer, following the exits of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger. The Blues' failure to sign targets Jules Kounde and Matthijs de Ligt has added further fuel to the fire. The west London side's manager Thomas Tuchel addressed their lackluster transfer window after an agonizing 4-0 defeat to Arsenal in a pre-season friendly. He said (via The Guardian): "We were simply not good enough. I look at the last season and parts of the game where we struggled, parts of the season where we struggled, and then we got sanctioned and players left us and some players are trying to leave us, and this is where it is." "So we had an urgent appeal for quality players, a huge amount of quality players. We got two quality players but we are not competitive like this. Unfortunately, you could see it today." According to Jacobs, the London side's initial bids were instantly rejected by the Foxes due to a £20 million pound disparity in the clubs' valuation of the 21-year-old. The Blues are now contemplating whether to make a new bid.
