Leicester City have completed the signing of defender Danny Simpson on a three-year contract.

The 27-year-old right back, who played 34 times for Queens Park Rangers last season as they clinched promotion to the Premier League via the play-offs, has joined City from QPR in a deal believed to be worth around £2 million.

Simpson becomes the second City player in three days to sign for City after the arrival of free agent Esteban Cambiasso on Thursday night.

"I'm really excited," Simpson said. "I've had a look around the facilities, which look fantastic, and had a good chat with the manager, who I'm really looking forward to working with.

"He told me that there's a good group of players here that demand a lot of each other and I think, from speaking to other people, he knows I'll work hard every day to fit into that. I've got a really good feeling about this."

Simpson is not eligible to face Arsenal at King Power Stadium tomorrow and it Is not yet known whether City have received international clearance for Cambiasso, although no complications are expected.

Simpson, who will wear the number 17 shirt, becomes City's sixth signing of the summer so far after the arrivals of Ben Hamer, Matt Upson, Marc Albrighton, Leonardo Ulloa and Cambiasso.
