Demarai Gray (l) scored on only his 12th Premier League start for Leicester
Leicester winger Demarai Gray says he is ready to sign a new contract with the club now the Foxes' managerial situation is resolved.
The 21-year-old was close to a new deal - according to then-manager Craig Shakespeare - six weeks ago.
Gray scored his first league goal in over a year in Claude Puel's first game as boss, Sunday's 2-0 win over Everton.
"We wanted to see who the new manager was, a bit of stability, but I'm happy playing football here," said Gray.
"It's for my representative and the backroom staff to deal with. All I can do is what I've done [against Everton]. When they give me the phone call we'll get it sorted."
Leicester rejected bids from Bournemouth and Crystal Palace for England Under-21 international Gray in the summer.
Sunday was only the forward's 12th league start in 20 months since joining from Birmingham for £3.7m in January 2016. He has come on as a substitute 39 times.
"I've always said I'm ready to play and I've waited a long time," Gray said. "Hopefully now this can be a start of a run of games for me.
"It's what I need, to get some confidence and momentum myself and most importantly develop as a player."
