But he's not a striker.

Foxes close in on Derby's Howard

Leicester City have confirmed they are close to signing striker Steve Howard from East Midlands rivals Derby County.
City chairman Milan Mandaric told BBC Radio Leicester they were trying to sign Howard in time for him to make his debut at QPR on New Year's Day.
"We need power up front and Steve Howard is the top draw on this one. I'm hopeful we can conclude something today [Monday]," said Mandaric.
Howard scored 19 goals for Derby last season, as the Rams won promotion.
Despite last season's tally however, Howard has only scored once in the Premier League this season and missed a penalty as the Rams slipped to defeat against Blackburn on Sunday.
But Mandaric is optimistic of bringing Howard back to the Championship. "My desire is to make this happen. We are determined to bring in additional power on the scoring goals side."

That is common knowledge and has been for a few days, see the various threads for reference. For Fox Sake was offering something new.

Cant say that i'd be envious of any players from our local rivals. We should be looking beyond if we want to bring some quality in imo.
