Callum Doyle will join Leicester for this season as former Manchester City coach Enzo Maresca has snapped up the talented defender.
Doyle, 19, enjoyed an impressive year at Sunderland two seasons ago before following that up with Coventry, with another excellent campaign that saw him named their Young Player of the Season ending in heartbreaking fashion as they lost 6-5 on penalties to Luton in the play-off final. The centre-back is also involved in the England youth set-up and played recently for the Under-20s.
Maresca had said when he took the Leicester job that he would be interested in signing a few players after a previous stint in the City academy, and despite some discussions over a permanent move has instead moved to sign up Doyle - pending a medical on Wednesday - for the upcoming year on loan. The pair gelled when they worked together in the 2020/21 side when the defender made 14 appearances for the coach and was part of both the Under-18s and Under-23s that won their respective leagues.
