Newly-promoted Leicester City have signed young Manchester United pair Nick Powell and Tom Lawrence.

Midfielder Powell, 20, joins the Foxes on a season-long loan, while forward Lawrence, also 20, moves permanently for an undisclosed fee.

The Wales Under-21 international has signed a four-year deal at the King Power Stadium.

Powell, who joined United for £4m in June 2012 from Crewe, spent last season on loan at Championship side Wigan.
