Worley, 20, has been with the club this week and played for the reserves in the 2-2 draw against Coventry on Tuesday.

"I've really liked his attitude," Holloway told BBC Radio Leicester. "He has got a bit of pace, he's 6ft 4ins tall and he's a brute of a defender.

"He's been knocking Barry Hayles all round the place and there aren't too many who can do that."

Worley came through the youth ranks at Stamford Bridge but has not forced his way into the first team squad and has not been offered a new deal.

Holloway added: "He's done very well so we'll see what the next step is with that."
