Dennis Praet’s move to Leicester City is now on the verge of happening, according to various claims coming from Italy on Wednesday evening.

The Belgian midfielder has long been linked with a move to the Premier League, and now Sky Italia report he’s ‘ready to fly’ to English football and continue his career at Leicester City.

Sampdoria, Praet’s current club, and the Foxes are said to be in the exchanging contracts stages of a deal, which means a medical and subsequent announcement can’t be too far away for Leicester.

An agreement on price is thought to have been found at around €21m, which looks like a reasonably good deal for both clubs involved in the transfer.

There’s no suggestion this one will face any time trouble, despite the window closing for Leicester signings at 5pm on Thursday.

The 25 year old is now ready to ‘start his new adventure’ under the bright lights of the Premier League.
