According to reports, Leicester City are on alert for Real Zaragoza's Ghanaian midfielder Yussif Saidu. Reports from the Spanish press also link Burnley and some German clubs with the 21-year-old. It is said that Stoke City and Rapid Vienna have inquired about the player's availability. Zaragoza, who were relegated to the third tier, had an initial €5 million asking price for Saidu at the start of the summer. Turkish Super League suitors Amed SFK were informed that a deal would require a €500,000 loan fee with a mandatory €4 million purchase clause. Negotiations never formally started and there has been no contact for a week. Saidu, who joined Zaragoza in January 2026, has a contract until 2030 and a current market value of €1.00m, according to Transfermarkt. In the previous season in LaLiga2, he made 31 appearances and scored one goal.
