Liverpool officially inquire about Olympiakos’s Tsimikas

Tsimikas is seen as a fall-back option should they fail to agree on Lewis

Leicester City and Liverpool have asked about Olympiakos left-back Kostas Tsimikas.

The 24-year-old has been on Leicester’s list for over a year amid increased interest from Chelsea and Manchester City in Ben Chilwell.

Liverpool, who had a £10million bid rejected for Norwich’s Jamal Lewis in midweek, see Tsimikas as a fall-back option should they fail to agree on Lewis.

Greek international Tsimikas impressed against Wolves in the Europa League on Thursday and has also drawn enquiries from Everton and Chelsea in recent weeks.

Olympiakos are ready to sell for around £12m and have lined up St Etienne’s Miguel Trauco as a replacement.
