Leicester City’s search for a manager continues as they face an uncertain future ahead of their Premier League return.
To lose the manager who guided you to the Championship title whilst overhauling the playing style in the process is not the ideal preparation for the top flight.
However, that is exactly what has happened with Enzo Maresca leaving for the vacant managerial position at Chelsea after just one season at the helm.
Numerous names have subsequently been linked to the Leicester job, with the likes of Mauricio Sarri, Carlos Corberan and Graham Potter all mentioned.
However, latest reports suggest Steve Cooper is now the leading candidate for the job.
