Chile international Dario Osorio has reportedly emerged as a summer transfer target for Leicester City, regardless of whether they secure their Premier League status or face relegation.

The 21-year-old winger has been impressing scouts since his move to Danish side FC Midtjylland from Universidad de Chile in 2023, with ambitions of making his mark in English football.

Osorio has already made an impact in the Europa League this season, finding the net twice. His performances have previously drawn interest from some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Manchester United, Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Tottenham Hotspur.

According to The Sun, Leicester City are determined to compete for his signature, even if they drop into the Championship.

“He’s one who cuts inside, likes to get shots off at goal, likes to attack,” said a scouting report from Liverpool.com last summer.

“When you watch him play, there are elements of Arjen Robben in that, when he gets the ball on the right-hand side, you know where he’s going. He just wants to come inside and look to get shots away.

“One of his goals, domestically, was a stunning strike when it cut in on his left boot from far out. He managed to hit the top corner with a swerving, dipping shot. That alone will have caught the eye.”
