SAD NEWS: Leicester city key player is in trouble just now…
Leicester City are in the pit of their worst slump of the season and the schedule upon the return from this month’s international break isn’t the most pleasing.
Since beating Southampton 3-2 in the middle of October, Leicester have lost three of their last four games in all competitions. The 3-0 defeat to Manchester United before the pause followed a loss to Nottingham Forest, draw to Ipswich Town and EFL Cup exit.
Despite this, Steve Cooper’s men sit 15th in the Premier League table on 10 points from 11 games. Unfortunately for them, all the teams below them have won in the period that City haven’t, meaning they could fall into the relegation zone after one bad result.

When Leicester return to action against Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea next Saturday, they will kickstart a busy November and December. Between that game and New Year, the Foxes play another seven times – including the Christmas double-header with Liverpool and Manchester City.
Leicester City’s Harry Souttar has addressed his future as he impresses on loan at Sheffield United.
The 26-year-old defender has endured a tough time at the King Power Stadium since his £15m move from Stoke City in January 2023. He has only played 15 league matches for the club, failing to help them avoid relegation from the Premier League in his first few months with the Foxes and then only playing three times as they won the Championship title last season.
But a loan move to the Blades in the Championship looks to have revitalised his club career and he has been a key figure for them in the opening few months of this season, playing in 14 of their 15 league matches and helping them to second place in the table.
