Sources: Leicester City work on last-minute Warren O'Hora swoop
Leicester City are working on a deal to sign Hibernian centre-back Warren O'Hora ahead of the imminent transfer deadline, sources have told Football Insider.
The Foxes are in the market for a last-minute addition to their defence, and have turned to the 27-year-old as a strong option for them to sign.
Russell Martin is keen to secure a reunion with O'Hora, having previously had him as part of his squad during their time together at MK Dons.
Leicester are hoping to get a deal for the Irishman over the line before Tuesday night's 11pm cut-off.
O'Hora made 37 appearances for Hibs in all competitions, and has already turned out nine times in the early stages of 2026-27.
He has been a key part of David Gray's plans at Easter Road in recent years, but a move to the East Midlands could now be on the cards.
Leicester face race against time with Warren O'Hora
O'Hora has become an established member of the Hibs squad since his move north of the border from MK Dons back in 2024.
However, he is out of contract with the Edinburgh outfit next summer, a situation that Leicester are now looking to take advantage of.
The defender is vastly experienced in League One, having previously spent three seasons playing in the third tier at MK.
He is also familiar with Martin's managerial style and coaching methods, and would be ready to hit the ground running at the King Power Stadium.
Leicester are working on several late deals in a bid to strengthen their squad, with O'Hora one of their top priorities in the final hours of the window.
However, they have left it late and now face a race against time in order to get their man.
Leicester set to sign John Lundstram
Football Insider also revealed on Tuesday that Leicester are set to sign John Lundstram on a free transfer after amid his impending release by Trabzonspor.
The Turkish giants are set to pay off the remainder of the 32-year-old's contract, with Leicester well-placed to secure his signature.
A move to join the Foxes would see Lundstram return to England, after he spent last season on loan at Hull City, who he helped earn promotion to the Premier League.
The veteran also has vast experience with both Sheffield United and Rangers on his CV, and is now on the verge of a move to Leicester.
