Leicester City striker Patson Daka has set himself targets for the coming season.

The Zambia international started with a bang at the Foxes last term, but his form faded away towards the end of the season.

He has netted three goals in three friendly games this pre-season, and wants to add to that tally in competitive games.

"It's always a great feeling (to score), it builds your confidence as a player, and I'm just happy that I was on the scoresheet again today," Daka told LCFC TV after a friendly goal against Derby County.

"It was a great pass from [Papy] Mendy, so I just had to make sure that I finished it, and I'm glad that it was a great goal at the end of it. We spoke about it yesterday in training. I just told him, when you get the ball, just look up, and I will be ready to run. I'm glad that he remembered, so when he got it, he looked at me, and it was the perfect ball."

He added: "I set targets – long-term and short-term – so for now, it's focusing on the short-term targets that I have.

"During this pre-season, I am going step by step, and looking at the goals I have set, I am getting there each and every day. I am really happy so far with the way things are going."
