Leicester City have boosted their attacking options with the signing of winger Cengiz Under from Roma, subject to clearance.

The Turkey international, 23, has agreed a one-year loan deal with Leicester and will join up with his new team-mates ahead of Sunday's home match against Burnley.

"I’ve always wanted to play in England and this is a great opportunity to play in the Premier League," Under told the club's official website.

“I feel very good because my best friend plays for Leicester City. I am very happy to be able to play with Caglar [Soyuncu] and I always watched Leicester’s games because of him.

“I think I am fast and can create lots of chances for my colleagues."

Under joins the Foxes after making 88 appearances across three seasons for Roma, scoring 17 goals. 

The winger has also scored six goals in 21 international appearances.

He is the club's' second signing of the summer transfer window, following full-back Timothy Castagne from Atalanta.
