Leicester City Praised After Making Approach For Experienced Manager

Although it's a great shame that Claudio Ranieri was sacked as Leicester City manager earlier this week, the Foxes must move quick if they want t o avoid a relegation dog fight.

Looking at social media, it's clear that the club's recent actions have impressed a lot of people.

According to The Telegraph,, Leicester have already began talks with former Real Madrid, Chelsea and Russia manager Guus Hiddink about taking over at the King Power stadium.

Hiddink, who has managed both at club and international level during his 29 years in management, would bring vast amounts of experience and class to the Leicester set-up.

The 70-year-old's knowledge of Premier League football is also adequate after his spell at Stamford Bridge in 2009 and 2015.

The Telegraph also report that Leicester have also made an approach to Portuguese coach Vitor Pereira, who is currently at 1860 Munich.

It is believed that Leicester find the fact that Hiddink has managed in the Champions League a huge factor behind their approach.

Do you think Hiddink would be a great choice at Leicester? Or do you think Vitor Pereira would be a better choice?

Let us know.
