Bury boss David Flitcroft is keen on signing Leicester's Joe Dodoo on loan after he scored a hat-trick against his side in the Capital One Cup.

The 20-year-old forward made his senior debut in the Foxes' 4-1 second-round victory over the League One side on Tuesday.

"He's left a massive impression on us and I'll certainly be trying to chat to (Leicester manager) Claudio Ranieri," Flitcroft told BBC Radio Manchester.

"Forget his ability, I love his character," added Flitcroft.

"I love the way he did his work, went about his work and celebrated his goal. He feels the emotion of football and he looks a real threat."
