Aston Villa striker Nathan Delfouneso has joined Leicester on a one-month loan.
Delfouneso, an England Under-21 international, could go straight into the squad to face npower Championship leaders Southampton at St Mary's tonight.
The 20-year-old is highly regarded by Villa and last year agreed a new three-year deal with the Premier League club to keep him in claret and blue until June 2014.
Birmingham-born Delfouneso has made 47 appearances for Villa, most of them as a substitute, and has scored nine times.
He has already sampled Championship football having spent two months on loan at Burnley towards the end of last season, where he played 11 times.
