King takes interim charge at Leicester

Leicester City have sacked manager Martí Cifuentes after the club slid to 14th in the Championship, with the season continuing to unravel at the King Power Stadium.

The decision followed a damaging home defeat to Oxford United, a result that proved the final blow for the Spaniard’s tenure.

Club legend Andy King has been placed in interim charge, with immediate responsibility falling on the former midfielder to steady a faltering campaign.

Leicester’s league record this season underlines the struggle, with 10 wins, 11 defeats and eight draws leaving them adrift of expectations.

Now, attention turns to King at the King Power as Leicester search for momentum and stability in a fractured Championship season.
