Nigel Pearson has now spoken to Fraizer Campbell and a deal looks on the cards, with Leicester getting a Premier League Striker for a bargain price of £800,000.

Cardiff City are believed to have wanted Campbell to stay,but were not able to guarantee him first team football.

Leicester City are closing in on a deal to sign Cardiff striker Frazier Campbell after triggering his release clause.

Campbell's release clause is priced at £800,000 and reports are suggesting that he will head to the King Power Stadium on Friday to finalise the move.

The former Manchester United front man impressed for the Bluebirds last season despite their relegation from the top-flight and Leicester are keen to offer him an immediate route back.

The 26-year-old joined the Welsh club in 2013 for a fee in the region of £650,000 from Sunderland and went on to make 51 appearances, scoring 16 times.

Leicester boss Nigel Pearson has been eager to get his business done early in the window and he sees Campbell as a man to provide some extra firepower.

Cardiff not being able to "Guarantee" him first team football that made me laugh, does that mean Leicester are willing to "Guarantee" him first team football. More a case of Campbell wanting PL football if you ask me.


Worked his socks off for us no one can doubt that but he also missed a few goals for us last season, I just wish people were more honest about wanting out.

at least that's a profit not like corny and med and prob caulker all will be losses

They've been favourites since the season ended.

Premier league striker?

I don't see how you can guarantee anyone first team football. He worked hard for us so wish him well. Madness he is going for 800k though.

Not bothered about him ,I want a scorer not A a worker

Can't believe we can't give him first team football, the lad wants premiership football which we can't so good luck to him. Why people can't wish him all the best for the future baffles me, he did alright for us, as good as anyone else bar Marshall.

Runs around and works his bollox off, but won't score enough goals for them In the Premier League, he should have stuck with us or another Championship side.....

Ole knows a goal scoring striker, maybe with the price so low, he just didn't really want to keep him.....

Not bothered about him ,I want a scorer not A a worker

I want both and Campbell would have provided us with both at Championship level.
