Pearson admits Leicester facing tough January market

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson says the January market will be hard work.

Pearson knows it won't be easy to land his targets in January and, while he knows the prices will be inflated, he said reports about how much money City have to spend are unrealistic.

"It is a notoriously difficult window to operate in as clubs are reluctant to make their best players available in January," he said.

"We have to make sure if we do business it is for the right reasons, but I'm not suggesting we won't do business.

"Stories have run about us having £180 million available and that figure is nonsensical."
