Leicester City manager Sven-Goran Eriksson is happy with the Championship side's signing of Ghana's John Paintsil. Paintsil, who is in line to make his Leicester debut on Tuesday in a friendly against Kettering Town joined Eriksson's side on a free transfer after failing to get a contract extension with Premier League side Fulham. Eriksson reckons the Ghanaian international will be valuable in their bid to go up. "It's very good that a player of John's experience and quality wants to join us at Leicester City. "He is another established Premier League footballer with a lot of caps at international level. He's very athletic, strong and I'm sure he will do very well for us. "If we lacked experience in defence last season, we have certainly addressed that with the players we have brought in this summer, both from the Championship and the Premier League."
