Foxes starlet to see out the season at the Crown Ground

Leicester striker Billy Kee is set to remain with Accrington Stanley for the remainder of the season. The Northern Ireland U21 international initially joined the League Two outfit back in July and will now see out the 2009/10 campaign at the Crown Ground. The highly-rated striker has made 19 appearances for Stanley so far, scoring three goals. He was called up into the senior Northern Ireland squad for the first time in September 2009, with Nigel Worthington impressed by his progress at Accrington. Leicester still regard him as a hot prospect for the future, and tied him down on a first professional contract last summer, but feel his development will be best served away from the Walkers Stadium for now.
