Leicester seal loan deal to sign RB Leipzig's Ademola Lookman

Ademola Lookman has joined Leicester on a season’s loan to bring an end to Brendan Rodgers’ summer-long search for a wide attacker.

The Foxes boss had been desperate to improve his options on the flanks and has finally landed his man, with the 23-year-old arriving from RB Leipzig.

The loan fee is thought to be minimal, and Leicester will have an option – rather than an obligation – to sign Lookman at the end of the campaign.

Lookman impressed while on loan at Fulham last season, and scored in their 2-1 win at King Power Stadium in November.
