Liverpool And Leicester All Set To Battle For Highly Rated Premier League Star

Liverpool and Leicester City are all set to battle for Southampton striker Shane Long, according to the Daily Mirror.

It is reported that Jurgen Klopp is looking to boost his squad after the £32.5m signing Christian Benteke facing an uncertain future at the Anfield, and on the other hand, Leicester City, who will be battling in the Champions League next season are also finding an attacker and it seems like both the clubs have set their eyes on the 29-year-old Irishman Shane Long.

Shane Long, who previously played in the Premier League for Reading and Hull City before his move to Southampton in 2014 had a pretty good season under Ronald Koeman as he managed to score 10 goals in his 28 appearances for the Saints, and also bagged 4 assists to his name.
