BREAKING NEWS: Leicester complete Iborra signing

Sevilla captain Vicente Iborra has concluded his move to Leicester City, signing a four-year contract with the Premier League club.

The clubs announced they had agreed a fee for the 29-year-old midfielder on Tuesday, reported to be in the region of £12.5million.

He is Leicester's second signing of pre-season following centre-back Harry Maguire's arrival from Hull City.

"I'm very happy to be here with Leicester City and I'm looking forward to experiencing the Premier League with my new team-mates next season," Iborra told Leicester's official website.

"Everything about this club seems good and it’s been great to meet my new team-mates. I've already spoken with them about the city and the club so I can't wait to get started."

Manager Craig Shakespeare added: "I'm absolutely delighted that Vicente has joined us. He's player with such a good pedigree from his time in Spain with Sevilla and he adds some really strong competition to our squad."
