"We're delighted to have a player of Anthony's calibre join the group, and I'm really looking forward to working with him between now and the end of the season.
"He has been a pleasure to deal with to date, and has shown a real desire to buy in to what we're trying to achieve as a team which is a real positive."
Knockaert also has second-tier experience at Nottingham Forest, and has played with Guingamp in his native France and Standard Liege in Belgium.
His form at Leicester earned him the Championship player of the year award in 2016-17.
