Leicester have held talks with Gokhan Inler's agent over the midfielder's future with the Premier League champions.
The 31-year-old's representative, Dino Lamberti, has spoken to Leicester following a disappointing first season in England for the Switzerland international.
No decision has been made, but Inler hinted last season he would be prepared to leave the King Power stadium following his lack of action; he made just five league appearances last season.
He admitted in January he had other options, but stayed to be loyal to boss Claudio Ranieri. Schalke have a long-standing interest after they lost out to Leicester for his signature last summer.
Inler failed to play for City after January and was dropped for Switzerland's Euro 2016 campaign, despite captaining them during qualifying.
Head coach Vladimir Petkovic warned his then-skipper, who has won 90 caps, in March he faced missing out on the tournament in France and he was eventually left at home after playing just 194 minutes in the top flight.
He still earned a league winners' medal, but Inler's last league appearance for Ranieri came in their 0-0 draw with Manchester City in December, with his final game coming in January's FA Cup exit to Tottenham.
He joined from Napoli for £5m last year, but fell behind Danny Drinkwater and N'Golo Kante in Ranieri's plans, although City are facing a battle to hold on to France international Kante this summer.
Leicester have been linked with a move for Nice midfielder Nampalys Mendy who would add further competition for Inler.
