Leicester City have pulled off a real coup by signing Japanese international Yuki Abe.
That is the view of English journalists working in Japan who expected the 28-year-old international to join a Premier League club.
Abe, who confirmed his switch to the Walkers Stadium on Tuesday, has become City’s most high-profile capture since current Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini signed for Peter Taylor back in 2001.
The Japanese-based journalists say Abe is a big star in the J-League and had been the subject of a record £3m transfer deal when he left his hometown club JEF United Chiba for Urawa Reds in 2007.
