Leicester City have signed George Thomas from Coventry City on a three-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

Thomas scored nine goals in all competitions last season and hit the winner when the Sky Blues won the EFL Trophy final at Wembley against Oxford in April/

The 20-year-old represented Wales U20s at this summer’s Toulon Tournament in France and can also operate in midfield.

His contract with Coventry expired in June, allowing Leicester to swoop once a compensation package had been agreed with the League Two side.

“I’m delighted to get it over the line finally and I’m looking forward to the season coming and seeing what I can do,” he told the club website.
