Leicester City signing Ignasi Miquel targets Premier League This is Leicestershire --

New signing Ignasi Miquel has vowed to help Leicester City reach the Premier League.

The 20-year-old defender has joined on loan from Arsenal for the rest of the season and becomes Nigel Pearson's second signing of the summer.

Miquel, who has played Champions League football for the Gunners, will be available for selection for tomorrow's home clash with Leeds United.

The Barcelona academy product and Spain Under-21 international said: "I knew I wanted to come here as soon as I heard there was interest from Leicester and I was focused on making it happen," he said.

"It's a great club and I'm coming to enjoy it here.

"It's about giving everything that I have and trying to win games. I will give everything I've got to get this club to the Premier League."

Miquel said playing in a tough division like the Championship will be a test for him, but he said it will help improve his all-round game.

"Growing up at Arsenal, it's about playing from the back," he said.

"I think my positioning is quite good, I like to read the game, but there are always things to improve on and that's why I'm here – to get games and improve myself.

"I hope to play as many games as I can – I know the Championship is a very tough division so, if I can play regularly, it will be massive for my improvement.

"It is going to be a massive challenge but I am here to get through it and better myself so I know it's going to be good." Reported by This is 21 hours ago.
