Everton and Leicester in battle to land 25-year-old Polish international
Brighton and Hove Albion are set to allow Jakub Moder to leave the club in the January window, with Everton and Leicester City interested in landing him.
CaughtOffside sources understand that Brighton are willing to cash in on Jakub Moder because of his injury problems, whilst the player himself is understood to be unhappy with his insufficient playing time under Fabian Hurzeler.
West Ham have already contacted Brighton about another of their exciting young stars, whilst Everton hope to also land Jaden Philogene from Aston Villa.
Leicester remain in the most precarious position of all of the clubs mentioned, and CaughtOffside sources believe that they are the outsiders in any deal for Moder at this stage.
Given that sources have also advanced that the Foxes are willing to offer the player a two-year deal with an option for a further season, it may well tip the balance in Ruud van Nistelrooy’s favour.
Bundesliga sides monitoring Jakub Moder
The Midlands-based outfit did try and sign Moder last summer, but in the end the transfer didn’t materialise, so a longer term interest may also be advantageous when it comes to negotiations.
At present, Leicester find themselves second from bottom of the Premier League table and two points from safety, and therefore need a boost from somewhere.
