Super Eagles goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo has emerged as a transfer target for Leicester City following a reported breakdown in contract negotiations with Wrexham ahead of the summer transfer window, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The 24-year-old shot-stopper, who has impressed with his performances for Wrexham, could be on his way out of the club despite having one year remaining on his current contract.

According to reports, discussions over a new deal have stalled, opening the door for interested clubs to make their move for the Nigeria-eligible goalkeeper.

Leicester City have reportedly identified Okonkwo as a priority signing as they seek to strengthen their goalkeeping department ahead of the new season.

Okonkwo, who came through the ranks at Arsenal, has established himself as one of the standout performers at Wrexham and his displays have attracted attention from several clubs.

A move to Leicester City would represent another significant step in the career of the talented goalkeeper as he continues to push for a regular place in the Super Eagles setup.
