Daka Will Feature In Today’s Friendly Match Against Burton

Patson Daka to play his first match at Leicester City in a friendly match this afternoon.

The club’s new £23m striker says his new colleagues were just as thrilled to welcome him to the King Power Stadium as he was to complete his switch from RB Salzburg.

Patson Daka is looking to show his new team-mates why they were right to be so excited by his arrival when he makes his first outing in a Leicester City shirt on Saturday.

The £23m summer recruit should feature when City play Burton Albion in their first summer friendly.

Away supporters will be in the stands at the Pirelli Stadium, and they are not the only ones eager to see Daka in action.

The 22-year-old Zambian has said his new colleagues were just as thrilled to see him arrive as he was to move to the King Power Stadium.

In his few weeks as a City player, he says he has bonded well with his new team-mates, and is now looking to build on-field connections.
