Leicester City might have invested heavily in the first team squad this summer, but they have also had one eye on the future.

The Foxes spent £40m to land club record signing Youri Tielemans, £30m went on Ayoze Perez from Newcastle and James Justin cost £6m from Luton.

Then on deadline day, attacking midfielder Dennis Praet cost £18m from Sampdoria.

On top of that, City snapped up five new signings who look set to link up with the Under-23s before pressing their case for first senior honours.

Here, we take a look at them.

George Hirst

Hirst joined from City's sister club OH Leuven in Belgium.

The son of former England striker David Hirst, he made the move to Belgium from Sheffield Wednesday in 2018, and he joins after impressing overseas.

He made 22 league appearances for the Leuven first team last season, scoring three times.

The 20-year-old has represented England at under-17 level through to under-20s. Hirst joined the first team at their recent training camp in Evian, France.

Vontae Daley-Campbell

Joined following his release from Arsenal at the end of last season.

The defender completed a scholarship at Arsenal and didn't quite do enough for a professional deal, instead signing terms with the Foxes.

He is an England youth international.

The striker joined from League of Ireland outfit Bohemians.

Reghba is a highly-rated Republic of Ireland under-19 international.

He spent time with the Foxes last season before returning to Bohemians with a view to putting pen-to-paper on a Foxes deal in the summer.

Reghba has now done just that, joining for an undisclosed fee.

Mitch Clark

The Wales youth international has signed on a three-year deal.

The 20-year-old was a free agent having left Aston Villa at the end of last season.

Clark, who made his first and only appearance for Villa in 2017, made 45 appearances for League Two Port Vale last term during a loan spell.

Callum Hulme

The teenager arrived in a reported £100,000 deal from the financially-troubled League One club Bury.

The three-year deal was wrapped up on deadline day.

A midfield all-rounder, Hulme played four senior matches for Bury last season, including 90 minutes against City in the EFL Trophy.

He made one appearance in League Two and was handed in his first professional contract in January.

His then manager Ryan Lowe said: “Callum is someone I have rated from the day I first saw him play.

“I gave him the captain's armband in the U23s when I was development coach 18 months ago and I also gave him his professional debut this season.

"I rate Callum highly and believe he has a big future.”
