Premier League champions Leicester City are eyeing another coach to replace Claudio Raneiri.

According to Sky Sports, Leicester’s candidate for the hot seat is Robert Mancini. The manager, also Italian, has experience in the English top-flight, having won the league crown with Man City in the final minutes of the last game of the season in 2012.

The 52-year-old is a free agent, but it is yet to be seen whether he will return to England. Mancini has been out of work since leaving Inter Milan last summer.

Leicester have made contact with Mancini but no negotiations have taken place.
