Charlton chasing late deal for former £20 million player

Charlton Athletic are targeting a late deadline day move for Leicester City midfielder Oliver Skipp.

Sky Sports have reported Charlton's interest in the former Tottenham Hotspur player.

It is believed that the Addicks are pursuing a season-long loan deal, whilst Skipp himself is keen to explore the move.

Leicester spent the best part of £20 million to sign Skipp from Tottenham when they were in the Premier League.

However, his time at the King Power Stadium has seen the club suffer back-to-back relegations.

Leicester have also endured a poor start to their League One campaign, with Skipp sent off in the home defeat to Burton Albion for a poor tackle.

The 25-year-old would become Charlton's tenth acquisition of the tranfer window and he could be find himself at a club who have won their opening three Championship fixtures.
