Wycombe Wanderers have confirmed the signing of former Leicester City midfielder Adam Leathers.
The 19-year-old, who was released by the FA Cup winners this summer, joins the Chairboys following a 'successful' trial period with the club.
Leathers was a regular in the Under-18 side at Leicetser, and also played four times for the under-23s last season.
This included his first-team debut in the Foxes’ 3-1 win at Grimsby Town in the EFL Trophy last November.

Former Leicester midfielder Adam Leathers joins after a successful trial period.
Upon leaving the Midlands outfit, Leathers trained with Wycombe and featured for the Blues in last week’s development squad friendly against Maidenhead, which Wanderers lost 3-2.
Development squad coach Sam Grace said: “Adam has worked hard in his trial period with us and earned the opportunity to develop his game with us even further.
“Thanks to the backing we’ve received from the board and the management staff of the club, we’ve been able to make great progress with the development squad in a short time, attracting more and more talented young players to the club.”
