According to Football Insider, cited by the Birmingham Mail, Aston Villa look set to miss out on Luton youngster James Justin to Premier League rivals Leicester City.
It is reported that Leicester have matched Villa’s offer of around £7.5 million but the Foxes have guaranteed the 21-year-old first team football which could make him more likely to join them.
Current Leicester left-back Ben Chilwell is being monitored by Manchester City and Atletico Madrid, so the Foxes are targetting Justin as his possible replacement at the King Power.
With Justin being just 21, he would not only be a brilliant signing now but one for the future as well.
Justin featured in 43 games for the Hatters and scored three goals as well as assisting seven goals in Luton’s League One title-winning campaign.
The youngster has also represented England at under-19 and under-20 level.
Justin, at such a young age, has two promotions on his CV and is also being looked at by Fulham, Southampton and Crystal Palace alongside Villa and the Foxes.
