Bacary Sagna on Leicester radar as Craig Shakespeare admits interest in right-back
LEICESTER are still in the hunt for Bacary Sagna.
The ex-Manchester City and Arsenal right-back, 34, has been out of contract since leaving the Etihad at the end of last season.
And Craig Shakespeare has confirmed that he is keeping tabs in France international Sagna.
The Foxes boss said: "We have looked at him before but we haven’t spoken about him recently.
"We are aware of the situation. We will look at it and review."
The East Midlands outfit have struggled defensively so far, conceding 12 goals in their opening seven Premier League games.

Only Crystal Palace have a worse defensive record.
But Shakespeare says he is happy with the strength in depth he has across his backline.
He added: "We have good defensive cover at the moment and players who can cover in different positions.

"But you always have to make sure that you are aware where the cover might come from if you have one or two injuries."
Brighton, Crystal Palace and West Ham were all linked with a move for the ex-Arsenal star but nothing materialised.
