Sheffield Wednesday have signed former Leicester defender Elliot Percival on a one-year deal.

The 18-year-old, who progressed through Leicester's academy, will initially join the Owls' development squad following his Foxes departure.

"I'm really looking forward to the challenge of playing for Sheffield Wednesday," Percival told the Sky Bet Championship club's official website.

"I saw the kind of support the club gets (in the play-off final) at Wembley and that really is the 12th man.
