Leicestershire: Niall O'Brien in talks with Grace Road club
Leicestershire are in talks to sign Ireland wicketkeeper Niall O'Brien, 91热爆 Radio Leicester reports.
The 30-year-old, who was part of the Ireland side knocked out of the World Twenty20 this week, has been told by Northants that he can seek a new club.
91热爆 Radio Leicester's Charlie Dagnall, a former Leicestershire player, believes money could be an issue.
"The sticking point may be what O'Brien wants in terms of wages and what Leicestershire can afford," he said.
"It does not mean the end for current keeper Ned Eckersley, but they did want to create more competition.
"They said that at the end of the season and O'Brien coming in would do just that."
O'Brien, who spent two years with Kent before joining Northants in 2007, made 62 in Ireland's victory over Zimbabwe in a T20 warm-up game earlier this month.
