Leicester City’s winter transfer window has been kickstarted by the arrival of Woyo Coulibaly from Parma.
Coulibaly completed a £3m transfer to Leicester on Wednesday and has signed a contract running through to 2029.
The 25-year-old will provide James Justin with competition and could make his debut on Saturday afternoon, as Leicester welcome Fulham to the King Power Stadium.
Ruud van Nistelrooy will be hopeful of adding more to his squad in the final couple of weeks in the window, though, the club will likely have to raise funds through player sales.
Tom Cannon could depart for Sunderland and raise north of £10m whilst a loan player departing could also help to facilitate incomings.
With that said, it’s just emerged that an MLS club have made a shock bid to sign a Leicester outcast.

Atlanta United make shock bid to sign Leicester outcast Odsonne Eduoard
According to transfer specialist Alan Nixon, MLS outfit Atlanta United have submitted a £15m bid to sign Leicester City loanee Odsonne Eduoard.
Steve Cooper signed Eduoard on a season-long loan from Crystal Palace in the summer but he’s failed to have the desired impact.
In fact, the French striker hasn’t made an appearance since van Nistelrooy’s arrival at the end of November, so it’s understood Leicester would be happy for him to depart for America.
That would then allow City to sign a player on loan this month and Mathys Tel has been linked to the East MIdlands on a temporary deal.
Wout Faes could also leave Leicester
Wout Faes could also be on the way out.
It’s just emerged that Lazio have submitted a bid to sign Faes, who has been on the fringes since van Nistelrooy joined.
Although, the Belgian centre-back did start against Palace last night and appears to have forced his way back into the Dutchman’s thinking.
So it seems a telling couple of weeks lie ahead at Leicester.
