Leicester to Sack Ruud Van Nistelrooy - and Replace Him with Axed Premier League Boss - The Mirror

Leicester City confirmed relegation from the Premier League after the 2023-24 season and are set to replace manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, who oversaw five wins from 26 league matches.
Van Nistelrooy took charge in late November following Steve Cooper's departure but failed to avoid relegation despite two wins after April 20, and Russell Martin, recently sacked by Southampton, is the leading candidate to succeed him.
Leicester's club hierarchy have held discussions with 39-year-old Martin, who has Championship promotion experience, while Van Nistelrooy remains uncertain about his future and excluded from planning for the next season.
Leicester are currently under investigation by the Premier League for possible violations of financial regulations related to the 2023-24 Championship season, with the matter now being reviewed by an independent panel.
Martin's likely appointment comes amid legal challenges that could start Leicester's next campaign with a points deduction, signaling complex hurdles as the club aims for an immediate return to the Premier League.
