“I’m really excited for the challenge ahead. It’s an amazing club with great history and the facilities are incredible,” said Winks, who has joined on a three-year deal.
“I’m also looking forward to a new challenge and to challenge myself. Coming to a club like Leicester is the perfect chance to do that.”
