Leicester City could be on the look out for a new manager to replace Ruud van Nistelrooy once the 2024/25 campaign draws to a close.
It’s been a complete disaster since Leicester replaced Steve Cooper with Van Nistelrooy in November, as the Foxes have sunk towards an inevitable relegation to the Championship.
Leicester have lost 13 of their last 14 matches in the league and are currently trailing 17th-place Wolves by nine points with under 10 games to go.
Calls to sack Van Nistelrooy have been strong, both from the stands and on social media during the last couple of the months, although the club aren’t able to relieve him of his duties.
Leicester can’t afford to axe Van Nistelrooy currently after letting go of Cooper earlier this season however, there is one manager on their radar if they do eventually get rid of the Dutchman.
According to L’Equipe, Strasbourg manager Liam Rosenior is currently ‘in the sights’ of Leicester City and Southampton, though it is claimed those two clubs don’t pose an immediate threat.
Rosenior has been managing the Ligue 1 side since the summer and is doing a fine job, dragging Strasbourg up to seventh position in the table, only a point shy of European qualification.
