Leicester are close to completing the signing of Napoli midfielder Gokhan Inler, according to Sky sources.

Foxes manager Claudio Ranieri refused to talk about the player at his media conference on Thursday, but it is believed a deal worth around £3m is nearing completion.

Inler joined Napoli in July 2011 and has been a firm favourite at the club during his time in southern Italy.
