Marko Futacs: Leicester striker joins Blackpool on loan

Leicester City striker Marko Futacs has joined fellow Championship side Blackpool on loan for a month.

The 23-year-old from Hungary, who is 6ft 5ins tall, could make his debut in the game at Birmingham City on Tuesday.

Futacs joined the Foxes from Portsmouth last summer and has scored twice in 12 appearances for Nigel Pearson's men.

Blackpool boss Paul Ince was keen to strengthen his attacking options, with the team having failed to score in his first three games in charge.

Futacs is Ince's second signing, following the arrival from defender Gary MacKenzie from MK Dons last Friday.
