Chelsea midfielder Cesare Casadei has joined Leicester City on a season-long loan.

The Italy U20 World Cup captain spent part of last season with Reading in a similar deal.

Speaking to LCFC.com, Cesare said: “I feel really good. I'm really happy to be here, I'm excited and I can't wait to get started. Obviously, Leicester is a big team so I'm here to win and to do as well as possible to fight and to work hard for this team."

The Foxes boast a 100 per cent record after the first two games of the Championship.
