Leicester won't appoint a new coach in time for Brentford match. Who will manage the team?
After the dismissal of Steve Cooper, Leicester is scrambling to find a new manager. While the process is moving quickly, they won’t be able to finalize the appointment before their upcoming match against Brentford. So, what will happen at King Power Stadium?
Details: According to Sky Sports, the team will be led by Ben Dawson in their game against Brentford on Saturday. Dawson, who stepped in after Cooper’s departure, has been conducting the team's training sessions this week. Thus, Leicester’s hopes of appointing a new manager in time for the Brentford match will not materialize.
Reminder: Ruud van Nistelrooy remains the leading candidate for the Leicester job. The Dutchman is finalizing the last details of his potential appointment, and it is these final negotiations that have prevented the former Manchester United striker from taking over the role sooner.
