The 26-year-old will head to the King Power Stadium to meet his new team-mates next week following the international break.
Centre-half Dragovic heads to the Premier League with a wealth of experience and 54 caps for his country to his name.
And he will be looking to add further honours to his already bulging trophy cabinet after picking up 10 trophies during his stints playing in Austria, Switzerland and Ukraine.
He has built himself a reputation as a tough-tackler across both European and international football and will now get to test his skills in England.
Dragovic was part of the FC Basel side that reached the 2012 Europa League semi-finals.
That was followed by a move to Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kiev.

He went on to help them win back-to-back titles while reaching the last-16 of the Champions League.
His displays for Dynamo and his country persuaded Leverksuen to splash the cash and bring him in on a five-year deal 12 months ago.
However ,he failed to firmly establish himself with the German outfit and only made 19 top-flight appearances for the club.
But Shakespeare is confident that he can get the defender firing on all cylinders again and has handed him an opportunity with the Foxes.
