Fryatt Stays as Kirkland Makes His Move

Matty Fryatt has stayed at the Walkers Stadium as rumours about a prospective departure to Nottingham Forest were quashed when the loan window closed at the end of last week.

Fryatt was hotly tipped for a move to the City ground as cover for their forward line as the Nuneaton-born striker has failed to shine for the Foxes so far this season. Fryatt has been heavily criticised in some quarters for his apparent lack of commitment this season, as he vies for his place in Leicester City's starting XI alongside Steve Howard, Martyn Waghorn, Paul Gallagher and Darius Vassell.

Meanwhile, Sven Goran Eriksson has secured a loan move for goalkeeper Chris Kirkland to the Walkers Stadium until January. The ex-England shot stopper worked with Eriksson during his tenure as England manager.
