Harry Maguire: Leicester City to sign Hull City defender in £17m deal

Leicester City are expected to announce the signing of Hull City defender Harry Maguire in a £17m deal.

BBC Radio Humberside understands an initial £12m fee with add-ons has been agreed, as have personal terms, and a medical has been completed.

Maguire, 24, scored three goals in 36 appearances as Hull were relegated from the Premier League last season.

The centre-back, who joined the Tigers for £2.5m from Sheffield United in 2014, had a year left on his contract.
