Leicester City are close to signing Molla Wague from Udinese, says Sky Sports.

The 25-year-old French-born Malian centre-back has arrived at Belvoir Drive to finalise details of his loan move to the reigning Premier League champions.

It is expected that Wague will join the Foxes for the rest of the season once he passes a medical.

Wague has been on loan with Udinese since joining sister club Granada from Caen in 2014.
