Trio in the race for Leicester star
Chelsea have emerged as favourites to land Leicester's Jamie Vardy.
The England international has become one of the Premier League's most sought after strikers after a stunning opening half to the season.
Vardy has found the back of the net 15 times already, which included a record breaking run of 11 consecutive games, to lift the Foxes to second in the table.
And Sky Bet have priced reigning champions Chelsea as favourites to sign the 28-year-old before the January window shuts and can be backed at 8/1.
The Blues currently languish 14th in the standings, with strikers Diego Costa, Loic Remy and Radamel Falcao scoring only a combined eight league goals so far.
But Guus Hiddink's side face competition from top flight rivals Liverpool (14/1), Manchester United (25/1) and Tottenham (18/1), who the bookmakers consider outsiders for Vardy's signature.
Jurgen Klopp and Louis van Gaal are reportedly desperate to strengthen their strike force this month due to a lack of goals, while Mauricio Pochettino is keen to add competitoin up front for Harry Kane.
But Foxes boss Claudio Ranieri has made no secret of his desire to keep his top goalscorer, while Vardy himself has come out to say he wants to remain at the King Power Stadium.
“Yes, Leicester match my ambitions,” Vardy said on his future. “I think the gaffer has come in and told the owners what he wants to do, and he wants to keep progressing.
"He wants to progress on what we did last year and then, in the years to come, he wants to keep us going up and up and up."
