Leicester City has signed Ajax's forward Timothee Kudus for €45 million, making him the most expensive player in English football history.

The deal is seen as a coup for Leicester, who have been looking to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season. The club's chairman, Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, said that the signing was "a major step forward" for the team.

Kudus is a highly rated young talent who has already made a name for himself at Ajax. He scored 21 goals and provided six assists in all competitions last season, helping the club to win the Eredivisie title.

The move to Leicester is a significant one for both parties involved. For Kudus, it is a chance to play in a top-flight league and compete against some of Europe's best players. For Leicester, it is an opportunity to add quality to an already strong squad and boost their chances of success this season.

It remains to be seen how Kudus will fit into the Leicester side, but the signing is certainly a positive development for the club. With his skills and potential, he could become a key player for the team in the coming seasons.
