Anthony Patterson has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Leicester, with the Championship side said to be eyeing a move for the Sunderland goalkeeper. Speculation is gathering pace as the club looks to bolster its squad ahead of a crucial second half of the season. Negotiations are still active, and with no other teams linked, Leicester appear to have a clear path to completing the deal. With only 15 goals conceded in 14 (1.07 per game), Leicester have been one of the stronger defences in the Championship this season.. Anthony Patterson would be asked to keep that standard and provide dependable cover when needed. Sunderland have recently been linked with Marc Guiu while Leicester have had no rumoured targets.
