Brady and Batshuayi in high demand by Leicester and Chelsea respectively

Leicester City are said to be very interested in signing Republic of Ireland star Robbie Brady from relegated Norwich City. Brady, who scored 2 goals for the Irish side during their last 16 run at Euro 2016, seems to have impressed Leicester coach Claudio Ranieri as his late winner against the Italians sent the Republic through to the last 16. Norwich are demanding a fee in the region of £7 million for the former Manchester United winger and Leicester seem willing to meet their valuation. 

Chelsea look set to rival Crystal Palace in the race for promising Belgian striker Michy Batshauyi. News broke yesterday that Palace had made a bid in the region of £31 million for the Marseille goalscorer, but it is believed Chelsea are set to trump that offer with their own offer of £40 million for the exciting former Liege and Anderlecht man. Sources close to the Belgian suggest he is more excited by the prospect of joining Antonio Conte's revolution at Stamford Bridge and it is believed Chelsea can offer him a better financial backache than their London counter parts. Batshuayi added further fuel to to the fire when he began following Kurt Zouma and Chelsea Ladies on Instagram on Wednesday.
