Filip Benkovic has revealed that he decided to join Celtic in search of regular minutes as he aims to eventually break through at Leicester City.
However, the Croatia Under-21 international was told that he may not be a regular first-team player, with the likes of Harry Maguire, Jonny Evans and Wes Morgan ahead of him in the pecking order at King Power Stadium.
Benkovic thus told Claude Puel that he would like a short-term move away from the club, and he subsequently decided to join the Scottish champions despite interest from other clubs.
