Turkish Media, including CNN Turk, is strongly linking the Nigeria skipper Joseph Yobo, who spent the last two seasons on loan at Fenerbahce , with a summer move to Championship side Leicester City.

The hypothesis is that Yobo arrives Leicester City on loan from the Toffees, with the championship side having the option of first refusal for the services of the 31-year-old center back.

Negotiation between Leicester City and Yobo's entourage is ongoing. If things go according to plan, the former Marseille ace could be unveiled in the coming days after a traditional medical examination.

In his two-year spell in Turkey, Joseph Yobo suited 69 times (1 goal) for Fenerbahce in the Super League.
