DONE DEAL: Leicester teenager Nelson completes move to Rochdale

Leicester City teenager Ben Nelson has joined Rochdale on a season-long loan.

The 18-year-old defender featured in a number of the Foxes' Premier League and Europa League squads last season.

"It's great that a Premier League team like Leicester City and a manager like Brendan Rodgers trusts us with Ben's development," said Rochdale manager Robbie Stockdale.

"I'm sure Ben will do well here, but it will also be a challenge for him at the same time."
