Freund on loan to Leicester

LEICESTER have signed former Tottenham midfielder Steffen Freund on loan from Bundesliga side Kaiserslautern.

The 34-year-old passed a medical and has signed until the end of the season, but will not be available for the Midlands derby with Aston Villa.

Freund leaves Kaiserslautern after being fined following comments in the German press citing “a lack of loyalty, team spirit and respect”.
