Leicester Citymidfielder Andy King has revealed that he simply cannot see himself in the colours of another team - and wants to finish his career at the King Power Stadium.


King has spent his entire playing career at the Foxes, and has been there from the beginning of their remarkablerise from League one outfit to Premier League champions.

Earlier in his career, King made waves as a goal-scoring midfielder, and was the subject of interest from numerous clubs wanting to add him to their ranks.


But the loyal 28-year-old remained a Leicester player, and has never looked back, and declared that there is 'something special' about the club.

Gushing about his career direction in an extended interview for the club's official website, King said: "They gave me a chance when I was released by Chelsea [as a 15-year-old], and I will always be grateful for that.


"The relationship I have with the club has come on over time. You can't just walk through the door and have a relationship for two or three weeks. You might be a favourite for two weeks and not the next three.

"The relationship I have with the club is built over time and I am very proud of the relationship I have with the supporters and the staff.


"I can't see myself anywhere else. To have that is magical for me andhopefully they appreciate me as much as I appreciate them. That is a nice feeling when I come into work."
