    Leicester City Chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha: Leicester City have announced the appointment of Marti Cifuentes as the new first team manager, following the departure of Ruud Van Nistelrooy. The 43-year-old, who joined the Foxes on a three-year contract, is excited to begin a new journey to write the next chapter for the club.

    Marti will be joined by assistant manager, Xavi Calm, 43, who worked alongside him in his previous role at Queens Park Rangers in the Championship. He arrived following an impressive spell at Queens Park Rangers, where he took over in October 2023, guiding the London side from the Championship relegation zone to an 18th-placed with five wins in the final eight games of his first season and improving on that again last term.

    “It’s a great honour to be appointed Leicester City Manager. This is a fantastic club with a proud history and it’s a privilege to me to be asked to help write the next chapter. I’m looking forward to getting to know the players, as well as connecting with our supporters and the city in the weeks and months ahead. I can see the passion that exists here, and I’m excited to begin this journey together,” said Cifuentes.
