Leicester City boss Claude Puel could hand deadline day signing Youri Tielemans his debut in Sunday's home game against Manchester United.
The Belgium international midfielder joined the Foxes from Monaco on Thursday while Adrien Silva moved in the opposite direction.
Tielemans spent the first four years of his career at Anderlecht before joining Monaco in 2017.
Puel said of the player's chances of featuring against United, in a game Leicester are 13/5 to win: "We will see. He had his first training session on Friday.
"It was a good training session with hard work and tempo. I will see on Saturday if he can participate in the squad for the game.
"We know it was difficult for Adrien [Silva] to keep a good focus without game time. It was important to have another option for us for the squad.
"I think Youri can give us a possibility to play with two or three midfielders. It will be good for the squad. He's an intelligent player and it will be interesting for us and for him. I am confident about him until the end of the season."
Leicester, who have beaten Chelsea and Manchester City already this season, as well as drawing 1-1 at Liverpool on Wednesday, can be backed at 12/1 to beat Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side from behind.
