The 20-year-old, who previously played a key role in the Championship by being involved in 19 goals last season, recently signed a permanent five-year deal with the club from Sporting CP.

On Monday night, Issahaku showcased his talent during his first appearance in the Premier League, providing an assist for Jamie Vardy’s goal.

This contribution helped Leicester City secure a valuable point in their match against Tottenham Hotspur.

"It was a great feeling and it is great to take a point out of it. I am so happy, it is a dream come true for me,” he told the club’s media.

“There is difference in the Premier League because it is more intense and more running. You have to keep on coping up with the team. There are differences but we keep going.”

Leicester City now prepares for their upcoming match against Fulham at Craven Cottage, where Issahaku aims to continue building on his Premier League experience.
