Highly sought-after Jamie Vardy has reportedly focused on staying in the Premier League this summer amid rumors of a transfer to Rangers.
With both Hamza Igamane and Cyriel Dessers possibly leaving this summer, manager Russell Martin requires additional support upfront.
Danilo kicked off the first pre-season match against Club Brugge last weekend, but sporting director Kevin Thelwell is searching for more offensive strength.
Maccabi Tel Aviv’s Dor Turgeman is on the target list while Martin declined to rule out a move for free agent Vardy following the draw with the Belgian team on Sunday.
But after the 38-year-old saw a transfer to Genoa fall through, the forward has appeared on social media to demonstrate his fitness to potential clubs with a training clip in the summer sunshine.
Reports have also surfaced that Vardy has been “offered” to Manchester United as the Old Trafford team strive to sign a new forward.

An image of Djeidi Gassama in Rangers colors has been shared online.
The Sheffield Wednesday star and former PSG academy player is poised to become Russell Martin’s latest acquisition.
The 21-year-old winger, who stood out in the Championship, has reportedly accepted a four-year contract with the Ibrox club.
Gassama will be the seventh addition to the Rangers roster this summer, joining Lyall Cameron, Max Aarons, Joe Rothwell, Emmanuel Fernandez, Thelo Aasgaard, and Nasser Djiga.
The leaked photo depicts Gassama in the new red Umbro training top, posing for a selfie with a supporter at St George’s Park.
Rangers are conducting pre-season training at the premier facility, where Gassama’s current team is also located this week.
Russell Martin is also considering transfers for Brighton’s Carl Rushworth and a budget-friendly deal for Hull City’s Abu Kamara.
