Leicester move for Man City defender Callum Doyle

Manchester City's Callum Doyle is set for a move to Leicester City this summer.

The 19-year-old, who was impressive at Sunderland two seasons ago and Coventry last term, is signing on a season-long loan deal.

Doyle, who is a central defender, will be playing for the King Power Stadium club in the Championship.

Having lost the likes of Caglar Soyuncu in the summer, Leicester have a hole in their back line.

City believe the England Under-20 international can be a future first team player at the Etihad Stadium.

The deal is strictly a loan, with Leicester having no buy option to secure Doyle permanently.
