The naturalised Italian was due to be resigned by Chievo after a year-long loan only for the deal to fall through after Ervin Zukanovic opted to join Sampdoria from the Gialloblu rather than Schelotto’s parent club in a part-exchange deal.

According to Tuttomercatoweb.com, Schelotto has an agreement in place with the Foxes but cannot move to the King Power Stadium until another player leaves as Leicester do not have space in their 25-man squad.

Speculation of Schelotto moving to join Claudio Ranieri’s side also increased as the winger posted photos to his Instagram profile of a visit to London.

Schelotto has one Italy cap to his name and he made 28 Serie A appearances for Chievo during the 2014-15 season.
