Leicester City have reportedly opened talks with the agent of Gremio striker Luan Vieira.

The 23-year-old, who has scored 30 times in 120 appearances for his Brazilian club, has been called into the Brazil squad for the 2016 Olympic Games.

Valencia have previously been linked with a move, but according to ESPN Brazil, Premier League champions Leicester have opened talks with the striker's agent Jair Peixoto ahead of a potential £20m move.

Gremio currently own 70% of Vieira's rights, while the striker is contracted to his current club until December 2018.
