Leicester City midfielder wanted by Serie A club
Leicester City midfielder, Dennis Praet, is reportedly a transfer target for Italian club Torino.
The 26-year-old has previously played in Italy with Sampdoria, leaving last summer to join the Foxes in an £18million deal.
The Belgium international is only 12 months into a five-year contract at the King Power Stadium.
In his first season at Leicester, he made 36 appearances in all competitions.
That included 16 outings as a substitute and 12 Premier League starts.
Now Torino want to bring Praet back to Serie A, according to Tuttosport, via Sport Witness.
It is stated that the Turin-based club are looking for an initial loan deal with an option to buy.
However, the report brands Torino’s pursuit of Praet as a “dream” for now – unless Leicester show a willingness to part with the player they signed only a year ago.

They have just appointed new head coach Marco Giampaolo, who Praet played under at Sampdoria.
