Leicester City are set for a busy end to the transfer window as they prepare a bid for Genk defender Kara Mbodj.

The 25-year-old Senegalese international has made more than 70 appearances for the Belgian club and new Foxes boss Claudio Ranieri is hoping he can bring his experience to his side.

It is expected that Leicester will have to pay in the region of £6million for Mbodj but Ranieri believes he would be perfectly suited for the Premiership and for his team.
