Reports claim that West Bromwich Albion have made a third increased bid for Leicester City's Jeffrey Schlupp.

West Bromwich Albion have made a third increased bid for Leicester City's Jeffrey Schlupp, according to reports.

The 23-year-old, a product of the Foxes academy, has been told by manager Claudio Ranieri that he may need to leave the club in order to play regular first-team football.

According to Sky Sports News, Leicester have already turned down a £9m offer from the Baggies, who have in turn offered more money in the hope of securing Schlupp's signature.

The Ghana international made 24 Premier League appearances and scored one goal as Leicester won the title last season.
