Leicester boss Pearson says Cambiasso ready to roll

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson says Esteban Cambiasso is ready for his debut this weekend against Stoke City.

Argentina ace Cambiasso joined on a one-year deal last month but has had to bide his time to make a first appearance for his new club.

Pearson said: "Cambiasso is doing very well. He talked about his English not being proficient a couple of weeks ago but he's a very good communicator.

"That's always a big plus when you have a player of his experience and quality.

"He's had nothing but a positive effect and that is testament to his own ability and character as a person. We're very pleased.

"He will be a part of the squad just like he was against Arsenal. But I will not show my hand."
