Leicester City fullback Ricardo Pereira has likened the club to LaLiga's Getafe.

The Foxes are on the brink of Champions League qualification this season.

Pereira told Marca: "I am not an expert in Spanish football, but Getafe reminds me of Leicester. It seems.

"It is a medium-sized club that comes to annoy the country's greats.

"The English league is probably the most difficult in the world and, again, I tell you that it is no coincidence that we are third in the standings."
