Leicester end interest in Serie A defender after ACL injury

Leicester have ended their interest in Merih Demiral after the Juventus defender suffered a serious injury on Sunday. Demiral has picked up a knee ligament injury during the Serie A club's 2 - 1 win over Roma. The centre-back will undergo surgery in order to solve the issue. He is likely to miss the rest of the season. The 21-year-old has made 7 appearances for Juventus, since joining the club from Sassuolo in July. Leicester targeted Demiral for a loan move. But the Foxes have ended their interest in the player after the inury. Borussia Dortmund have also been interested in the defender. However, it ended with a £34m bid fail.
