Leicester City invite Stafford Rangers striker Josh Gordon for trial at the club

  • Leicester have been struggling for goals in the Premier League this season 
  • Foxes have invited non-League Stafford Rangers striker Josh Gordon for a trial 
  • The 22-year-old began his career with Stoke and was at Nantwich previously
  • Leicester were dumped out of the FA Cup by League One Millwall on Saturday 
Leicester City have invited Stafford Rangers striker Josh Gordon for a trial at the club.
The 22-year-old, who has also been watched by Derby County among others this season, is due to train with the Premier League champions next week.
Gordon only joined Stafford from Nantwich Town in October and has scored ten goals in the Northern Premier Division. He began his career with Stoke City and has since had stints at Alloa and Peterborough United.
The relegation-threatened champions could do with some added firepower in their squad, as Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez continue to struggle in front of goal.
The Foxes sit just one point above the relegation zone in the Premier League, and have lost their last five league matches.
Their cup form took a turn for the worse on Saturday too, as they were dumped out of the FA Cup late on by League One Millwall.
