Wes Morgan completes Leicester City switch

Leicester City have completed the signing of centre-back Wes Morgan from Midlands neighbours Nottingham Forest.

The defender has signed a two-and-a-half year contract at the King Power Stadium in a deal that is thought to be worth around £1m.

Morgan becomes Niger Pearson's third signing of the January window following the deals for Danny Drinkwater and Nathan Delfouneso.

The 28-year-old has spent almost all of his playing career at the City Ground and will look to settle into the Foxes squad in Wednesday night's Championship game against Middlesbrough.
