A host of Premier League clubs want to snap up Inter Milan defender Jeison Murillo in the summer, according to Italian broadcaster Sport Mediaset.

The 23-year-old is wanted by Leicester City, Stoke City, West Ham United and Everton, with Russian outfit Zenit Saint Petersburg are also keeping tabs on the Colombia international.




Leicester and Zenit are keenest on the defender, with Foxes boss Claudio Ranieri a big fan. Murillo, who joined Inter Milan from Granada in February 2015, made 35 appearances for the Italian giants in the 2015/16 campaign.
 


Besides providing stability to the Nerazzurri’s defence, he also managed to score twice and provide an assist.

It has been claimed that Murillo, whose present contract with Inter Milan runs until 2020, could fetch around €25m, meaning the Italian club are open to letting him go.

Murillo, who has also been linked with a move to Manchester United, has 16 caps and a goal for Colombia to his name and is expected to represent his nation in the Copa America next month.
