This is the one Leicester City fans have been waiting for.

After Abdul Fatawu's loan spell at King Power Stadium, the supporters already know they are getting a real talent who plays with pace and flair, getting them off their seats time and time again last season.

They say you should never fall in love with a loan player, but that was easier said than done with Fatawu.

He not only provided six goals and 13 assists in the Championship title win, but did so with a huge smile on his face, backflipping to celebrate at every opportunity he could - whether he'd scored the goal or not.

His moves on the pitch, combined with his dancing off it, made him an instant fans' favourite.

At just 20, he has the potential to be a huge star for the Foxes in the Premier League.

To have him signed permanently on a five-year contract is huge news for the club as the team returns to the top flight.
