Manchester City fullback Greg Cunningham is pleased with his loan move to Sven Goran Eriksson's Leicester City.

The Irish youngster has signed with the Foxes until January.

"It will be a great chance for me to hopefully get some first team football, to continue my football education and work under another top class coach in Sven-Goran Eriksson," Cunningham told City's website.

"Leicester seem to be coming into form just now. They won at Leeds on Tuesday night and are climbing the table; I hope I get the chance to help them continue that rise up the Championship table."
