Leicester City overtaken in race for midfielder star

It’s been widely publicized that Leicester want and have possibly made an offer for creative midfielder Adam Lallana, who is about to depart Liverpool. Last week it was reported Burnley and Brighton & Hove Albion also desire the former England player’s signature.
