Leicester City sign Liam Cullen from Swansea City to bolster striker options

 

 

Leicester City have completed the permanent signing of Swansea City forward Liam Cullen for an undisclosed fee.

 

Cullen becomes the fourth signing of Russell Martin’s reign at the King Power Stadium, following the arrivals of Conor Chaplin, Alex McCarthy and Christian McFarlane ahead of the 2026/27 campaign.

 

The Wales international can play as a centre-forward, attacking midfielder or right winger. He previously worked under Martin at Swansea before the Leicester boss moved to Southampton.

 

“I’m buzzing to be here and I can’t wait to get started. When this opportunity came about and with the size of the Club and the project they’re getting started with now, I thought it was the perfect fit for me,” he said, after putting pen to paper on a three-year deal.

 

“The way we want to play football suits me really well. Keeping the football, playing in the opposition half, creating chances and scoring lots of goals. “I’m quite versatile in terms of where the manager wants to play me, but the main thing is to score goals, help the team win games and hopefully push the Club back to where we want to be.”
