Welcome to Saturday's Leicester City live blog from the Leicester Mercury.

We are expecting another busy day of Foxes news, and will keep you across all the latest transfer stories as Claude Puel continues to shape his squad for the new campaign.

That work is well underway already as Leicester's deal to bring Ricardo Perieira to the King Power Stadium edges toward completion.

Should anybody join the Porto man through the door, we will let you know as soon as we have it.

Our live blog will bring you all the latest Foxes news, updates from around the Premier League and beyond plus all the national paper talk.

You can get involved in the conversation by getting in touch with us on Facebook or Twitter.
