BBC Radio Leicester<\/em>.<\/p>\n“Hopefully I can settle things there and come back. If I could come and play for Leicester that would be great.”<\/p>\n
Yakubu first moved to Everton from Middlesbrough in August 2007 for a fee of \u00a311.25 million.<\/p>\n
Since arriving at the Walkers Stadium, and under the guidance of Foxes boss Sven-Goran Eriksson, the 28-year-old has found form, scoring 10 goals in 19 appearances.<\/p>\n
“I had a great time at Everton but I think I have to move on,” he said.<\/p>\n
“I’ve had a great four months at Leicester and my season has been really good.<\/p>\n
“It feels like home and I feel like I’ve been here for three or four years – I’m enjoying it.<\/p>\n
“The players and the fans have been really nice to me and hopefully I will see them again.”<\/p>\n
Speaking about Leicester\u2019s failed attempt to reach this season\u2019s play-offs, Yakubu added: “In the end we are disappointed not to get to the play-offs or get to the Premier League.<\/p>\n
“But hopefully next season the manager is going to bring in more players and I think next season we are going to be better than this season.”<\/p>\n
Yakubu has not had it all his own way at Leicester and has been benched in some games, but that has not deterred the forward.<\/p>\n
“The manager believes in me and even when he rests me it’s normal, he wants to give some other players a chance,” he said.<\/p>\n
“When I came here I never said I was going to have an automatic shirt to play. You have to fight for the shirt, you have to believe and you have to produce every game – if you don’t play well, you’re not going to be in the team.<\/p>\n
“To get a game and show people that I can score goals has been great.”<\/p>\n
