Leicester City defender Liam Moore joins Bristol City on loan

Championship side Bristol City have secured the half-season loan of Leicester City defender Liam Moore.

The 22-year-old has not been part of Claudio Ranieri's squad in the Premier League so far this season and drops down to the second tier in search of regular first-team football.

The Robins have beaten other Championship sides to his signature and he moves to Ashton Gate on a deal until January 4, 2016.

Moore, an England Under-21 international, was a key player when Leicester were promoted from the Championship in 2013-14, but played just 11 Premier League games last season.
