Manchester City have announced the signing of teenage winger Jeremy Monga from Leicester on a five-year deal.

Monga made his Premier League debut for the Foxes at the age of 15 and has decided to join City despite interest from other top clubs.

The 17-year-old played 37 times for Leicester and was also the youngest player to start a game for the club.
