the Foxes are reportedly in meltdown' and have turned to a familiar face in a desperate bid to stabilise a season that is rapidly spiraling out of control The dramatic move comes in the wake of Marti Cifuentes' sacking just six months into his tenure. Cifuentes was dismissed following a brutal collapse in form that saw the team win only once between September and October. A recent 2-1 home defeat to struggling Oxford United proved to be the final straw for the hierarchy.

According to The Telegraph, Leicester were found to have made losses of 200 million in the three-year accounting period up to June 30, 2024. Clubs in England's top two divisions are permitted to lose a maximum of 105 million over a three-season period. This figure is lower for teams competing in the Championship for a partial or full duration of the relevant accounting period. In Leicester's case, the club's loss limit for period 2021-2024 was 81m.

Leicester City are exploring a move for Newcastle United defender Jamaal Lascelles, as the Foxes look to inject leadership and defensive solidity into a season that has not gone according to plan, as reported by BBC. With the club struggling to find consistency in the Championship, caretaker manager Andy King is understood to be pushing for reinforcements who can provide both immediate impact and dressing-room authority.

Leicester City pulled off one of the most remarkable title successes of all time when they won the Premier League in 2016 and the 10-year anniversary is now fast approaching. The Foxes surpassed all expectations by beating the likes of Arsenal, Spurs and Manchester City to the title in 2015-16, despite only narrowly avoiding relegation during the previous season.

The [person] most people should blame is me because I own the club, I'm the chairman,

Coventry City strengthened their grip on top spot in the Championship table with a 2-1 comeback win over East Midlands rivals Leicester City. Having seen Middlesbrough move within three points of the summit with an entertaining 3-2 success over West Brom on Friday, Frank Lampard's Sky Blues initially threatened to give up ground. They went 1-0 down to Jordan James' strike in the 10th minute, which was assisted by a lovely ball around the corner from Bobby De Cordova-Reid.

I am really honoured and excited to start my journey here. I am looking forward meeting the fans and playing at King Power Stadium,"Jansson said. "I will always bring my everything to the club I'm playing for, so the supporters can expect that from me. "The WSL is a great league and where all players want to play. I am happy to be here and happy to be here with Leicester.

Leicester City have reportedly blocked a potential January exit for defender Caleb Okoli, turning down a transfer approach from Italian Serie B side Cremonese. According to Sky Sports reported Gianluca Di Marzio, the Foxes have made it clear that the 24-year-old centre-back is not for sale during this window, despite the player's fluctuating minutes in the Championship this season.

However, making an immediate return to losing ways last time out as they opened the New Year with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Sheffield United, the pressure on Marti Cifuentes' shoulders has now reached a boiling points. Coming under a huge amount of scrutiny on December 20th as they slumped to a 4-1 drumming against QPR, the Foxes have lost three of their previous four Championship appearances.

Relegated from the Premier League last season, Leicester are targeting an immediate return to the top flight, but their campaign has been inconsistent. Marti Cifuentes's men have recorded eight wins, seven draws, and eight defeats from 23 Championship matches, a mixed run that sees them stuck in mid-table. Their recent form offers little encouragement: a 2-1 home loss to Watford followed a heavy 4-1 defeat at Queens Park Rangers on December 20.

A decade on from their Premier League title triumph, Leicester now face the grim prospect of mid-table obscurity in the second tier, currently on course for their lowest finish since 2012. December began brightly with seven points from three games, but optimism was dented by a crushing 4-1 loss at Loftus Road on Saturday. Four first-half goals from QPR condemned Marti Cifuentes's side to their seventh defeat of the season, leaving them 13th in the table and four points adrift of the playoff spots.

Marti Cifuentes takes his Leicester side back to his former club on Saturday (15:00 GMT) having moved up to eighth place in the Championship following a run of seven points from their past three games. QPR would move above the Foxes with a win at Loftus Road. None of the past 11 league meetings between QPR (five wins) and Leicester (six) have been drawn, with the Hoops winning 2-1 last time out in March 2024.

Former Swiss International midfielder Gokhan Inler has now revealed that he had the opportunity to join Arsenal during his time at Udinese. However, the Italian outfit refused to sell him back then. The player eventually ended up in the Premier League with Leicester City, and he won the league title with them during the 2015-16 season. Arsene Wenger wanted to bring the Swiss International midfielder to Arsenal during his time at the club.

Christian Fuchs has been linked with Newport County, and he is reportedly set to take over the managerial role. Speculation is growing that the former Premier League champion Christian Fuchs could join the Welsh club as their new manager after he was spotted watching Newport County's recent away fixture from the stands, as per The Sun. Christian Fuchs did well for the Foxes

Leicester City are beginning to assess options that could strengthen their squad for the second half of the campaign as they make plans for the January transfer window. One name that has recently emerged is Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford, and according to a Sky Sports pundit, his arrival at the King Power Stadium would represent a major coup for the Foxes. The pundit suggested that if Leicester could convince City to part with Trafford, it would be a significant statement of intent.

He's started the season well, he's the kind of player you can see one of those Premier League clubs maybe taking him. The position he plays and the way he's started, you know he's going to be a real big player for Leicester. So they [Leicester] will really have to brace themselves for that because I think that will definitely happen if he continues to have this great form.

The 38-year-old, who was introduced just before the hour mark, failed to make an impact on the score when he came on from the bench.
