The former Netherlands international has found game time hard to come by under Sinisa Mihajlovic and the Foxes could look to his experience if they are to realistically mount a title challenge.

 

In the 2011/12 season, only Leon Britton (93.4%) finished the campaign with a higher pass completion than De Jong (92.3%).
