Leicester make new bid for winger

Sky Sports understands that Leicester City have made an improved bid for Hull City winger Cameron Stewart. The former Manchester United starlet is enjoying a very good season with The Tigers, after only completing a permanent switch from Old Trafford in the summer. Sky Sports revealed on New Year's Day Leicester's first bid for Stewart, which was subsequently rejected out-of-hand by the East Yorkshire outfit. After seeing the 20-year-old score the winner in Hull's 3-1 win over Ipswich on Saturday, former Tigers chief Nigel Pearson made a fresh move. A bid of £1.5million is now understand to have been lodged at the KC Stadium, and Pearson will hope his ex-employers will accept. With a deal agreed for Billy Sharp on Saturday, Leicester are desperately looking to bolster their squad in the coming days.
