Leicester City are one of four Premier League clubs interested in free agent Hal Robson-Kanu, Sky sources understand.

Robson-Kanu was not offered a new deal by Reading at the end of last season and his performances for Wales during Euro 2016 have done his chances of a move up the leagues no harm.

Leicester's head of recruitment Steve Walsh - the man responsible the signings of N'Golo Kante and Riyad Mahrez - has watched Wales twice in Euro 2016, sources have told us.

Robson-Kanu scored a stunning goal in Wales' 3-1 win over Belgium in the quarter-finals of Euro 2016, his perfectly-executed Cruyff turn wrong-footing three opposing defenders.

The player was non-committal over his future when he spoke to the press on Sunday, three days before Wales face Portugal in their semi-final clash.

When asked whether his representative had been busy, Robson-Kanu said: "Yeah he has! It's one of those things, it's quite a unique position but as a player my focus is on the next game and we're taking it seriously. That will look after itself."
