Swansea City are the latest side to be linked with the Leicester City winger, after Tottenham Hotspur, Everton and Bournemouth.
Swansea City are 'in the hunt' to sign Leicester City winger Demarai Gray, joining Tottenham Hotspur, Everton and Bournemouth, according to The Sun (August 2, page 46).
It was reported earlier this week that Gray has held talks with Leicester to discuss a possible transfer away from the King Power Stadium (Sky Sports).
The 21-year-old has previously expressed his frustration about his lack of game time since joining the Foxes 18 months ago.
And Swansea are the latest club to be linked with rescuing the player, who The Sun reports is valued at £25 million by Craig Shakespeare's team.
The Swans could lose Gylfi Sigurdsson - a former Tottenham player - to Everton this summer, with a £50 million deal mooted (The Guardian).
And should the Toffees' pursuit prove successful, the Welsh side should have little trouble meeting the above valuation for Gray, who could potentially replace the Iceland international.

But Tottenham could pose the biggest threat to both Swansea and Everton's chances, as they can offer the England Under-21 star Champions League football this coming campaign. [Post edited 2 Aug 2017 10:14]

He wouldnt join us even if we were to pay that amount.
Seems we are being linked with unrealistic targets and bidding silly amounts for players.....if reports can be believed. |  |

Why would Gray come to us?
Equally why would Siggy go to them ! | | | |

Whilst I broadly agree with your point Al, they are two different situations for me - Gray is after regular playing time (plus no doubt more money) which we'd offer without Siggy, not sure he'd get that at Spurs. | | | |

A lot of money. But if PC deems him good enough and he is proven correct - he is someone that we would most certainly be selling for a profit in the future. | |

Can't see this one happening for that kind of money. | | | |

OK let's think outside the box.
We value Siggy at £50M they have offered £40M.
They have valued Gray at £25M.
Would we accept Gray and £25M for Siggy?
EDIT.
Would this reduce Spurs sell on cut.
Would it reduce Siggys cut for not asking for a transfer.
If so about A £5M saving in all? [Post edited 2 Aug 2017 11:19]

He won't join us, however he is a cracking player.
Cost Leicester around 3 million from memory a little while back. |  |

Yeah and I'm sure we looked at him then. Didn't he come from Birmingham? |  | | |

From what I have saw he is quality, too expensive for us though. |  | | |

It's so similar to previous summers where we make below par bids for players top 6 area interested in them complain about the market. We need to look at how other bottom half clubs are doing their business. Fast and decisive versus our slow and ponderous approach. We are desperate for a proper DOF and customer new he of transfers versus our jobs for the boys approach.
team. Ours are sadly years out of date in contacts and capability. |  | | |

When they say 'join the chase' is this like us being the one-legged 85 year old joining the 100m with Usain Bolt already 50m down the track.
Never mind, it's the taking part that counts I suppose! |  |

Would be a fantastic addition to the squad, really can't see it happening though |  | | |

Would think he'd bide his time with Leicester with all the speculation around Mahrez future.
Can't see him going for 25 million, although he should have been more involved he's been a bit part player with them. Played 30 last season, came off the bench 21 times. |  | | |
