Robbie Brady could end up playing Champions League football this season after all

Robbie Brady was linked with a big-money transfer to Premier League clubs last summer.

Leicester City, West Ham United and Sunderland were all reportedly interested in signing Brady from Norwich City. Yet, despite his heroics at Euro 2016. the Dubliner failed to secure a move. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/814962268190478337 However, the situation appears to have changed. Firstly, Norwich are in the market for a striker and need to sell players before they can buy. Brady is their most valuable asset. His hopes to returning to the Premier League were also handed a boost when Sam Allardyce appeared to confirm his interest. The new Crystal Palace manager is in the market for a versatile player, who is comfortable at left-back. "Somebody like Robbie Brady, I would say yes," Allardyce said.

"Anybody like that, if the club says they are available."

However, Palace will reportedly have competition for Brady from a team who turned down the opportunity to sign him last summer - Leicester City. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/751924914207293440 The Premier League champions will "step-up" their interest in the Irish international as soon as they offload winger Bartosz Kapustka, according to The Mirror. The 20-year-old Polish international joined the club from Polish club KS Cracovia last summer for £7.5m. However, has failed to make a single appearance this season. Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri is willing to allow the player to return to the continent, either on-loan or on a permanent deal. Norwich will reportedly accept a bid of between £10m and £13m for Brady, who's contract expires next summer. The 24-year-old joined Norwich from Hull in the summer of 2015 for £7m. If he was to sign for Leicester, he would be eligible for the Champions League. The Foxes resume their European campaign next month with their last-16 tie against Sevilla.
