The 27-year-old made 37 appearances across all competitions for Leicester City, his most in a single campaign since moving to England.

Leicester City finished the campaign in eighth place and missed out on a European spot despite their impressive run in continental football in the just-ended campaign.

The 2016 Premier League champions reached the last four of the Europa Conference league and were eliminated by Jose Mourinho's AS Roma.

How Leicester City thumped Southampton to finish season in style

With Europe out of sight for Leicester City, the Foxes had to wait till the second half to open the scoring against Southampton on the final day of the season.

James Madison scored four minutes after the break before Jamie Vardy doubled the lead with 15 minutes remaining. But Southampton pulled one back through James Ward-Prowse.

Ayoze Perez netted a brace in the last ten minutes as a rampant Leicester signed off the campaign in phenomenal fashion.

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Ghana and Leicester City centre half Daniel Amartey was in inspired form as Leicester City continue their resurgence with a vital win against Brentford.

The 27-year-old defender has been in a rich vein of form lately and was in beast mode once again for the Foxes as they defeated Brentford 2-1 at the King Power Stadium.

He is expected to join his Black Stars teammates on Monday when the four-time African champions begin camping for their all-important World Cup play-offs against Nigeria.
