Leicester sign Liverpool Danny Ward on a four-year deal.
Wales international goalkeeper Danny Ward has completed his move from Liverpool to Leicester.
Liverpool Danny Ward completed his move to King Power after Leicester paid £12.5m for the 25-year-old, following the reds record-breaking transfer of Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson.
The goalkeeper joined Liverpool from Wrexham in January 2012 and impressed for the club’s youth sides as he set about staking a claim to be involved with the first team.
After loan spells with Morecambe and Aberdeen, his senior debut for the Reds eventually came under Jürgen Klopp in the final weeks of the 2015-16 season in a Premier League clash with AFC Bournemouth, and he subsequently started at Swansea City.
Speaking to LCFCTV after penning a four-year deal, Ward said: "I'm delighted to be here and I'm really looking forward to the future with this football club.
"I've come here to develop my all-round game and hopefully help deliver some more success. The club has had that in recent years and hopefully there's more to come in the future."
Leicester boss Claude Puel added: "I'm very happy to welcome Danny to Leicester City Football Club.
''Pre-season preparations have started well for us and with Danny joining the group, it will give us even more competition in the squad, which is crucial for us ahead of what will be another very competitive Premier League campaign."
