Winger Demarai Gray is ready to sign a new Leicester contract to end lingering speculation over his future.
The 21-year-old has been in contract talks and former boss Craig Shakespeare said he was close to a deal almost two months ago.
But discussions have dragged on, not helped after Shakespeare was sacked earlier this month and replaced by Claude Puel last week, and Leicester rejected bids from Bournemouth and Crystal Palace in the summer.


Gray starred in Puel's first game on Sunday, scoring the second and playing a huge part in Leicester's opening goal in a 2-0 win over Everton, and he confirmed he is prepared to sign.
