Leicester City reject £3m Galatasaray bid for Sunderland target Leonardo Ulloa
Leicester City have rejected a bid from Galatasaray for their star striker Leonardo Ulloa.
A source close to the Turkish giants revealed to Turkish-Football that the Premier League side have turned down their £3 million offer for Ulloa.
Per-the-source, manager Claudio Ranieri is keen to keep hold of the Argentine striker and blocked the move.
Ulloa was a key part of Leicester City’s squad which won the Premier League against the odds last season.
However, the 30-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at the King Power following the signings of Islam Slimani and Ahmed Musa.
Meanwhile, the Daily Mail state that Sunderland have also had a bid rejected for the experienced striker.
