Here are your Leicester City headlines on Monday, June 5.
Vardy says sorry
Jamie Vardy has apologised for failing to help keep Leicester City in the Premier League.
The City legend, who has been with the club for 11 years, said the team "failed" supporters and "clearly did not" do their jobs on the pitch as Leicester plummeted to the second tier.
Vardy said accountability needed to be taken by every player and that no excuses could be made for the club's plight. He will now reflect and let the situation "sink in", he told fans.
Gerrard to City?
Steven Gerrard reportedly has a strong chance of becoming the new manager at Leicester City.
Gerrard 's time at Aston Villa did not go to plan after taking over from Dean Smith. However, he is said to be keen to get back into management after leaving Villa last year.
The former Rangers chief has since been linked with several jobs including Leeds United, who are said to have him in top three to take over at Elland Road. The Sun now reports that Liverpool legend Gerrard has emerged as a new name on the list and has a "strong chance."
City face transfer 'snub'
Leicester City are reportedly set to miss out on the signing of Sunderland goalkeeper Anthony Patterson.
City had identified the 23-year-old shot-stopper as an option for their goalkeeping ranks following his impressive displays for the Black Cats in the Championship. Reports had claimed that City were in the "strongest" position to land him.
The club were also preparing a formal offer for Patterson, despite Wolves also being credited with an interest. He had been valued at around £10million by Sunderland.
Lineker left in tears
Gary Lineker has revealed that Alan Shearer left him in tears following his gesture to boycott Match of the Day.
A number of the program's panellists including Shearer and Ian Wright showed solidarity with Lineker by walking out after he was taken off air by the BBC earlier this year. Lineker was asked to step back after calling Home Secretary Suella Braverman's presentation of her 'stop the boats' bill "beyond awful."
Lineker also stated that some of her language was "not dissimilar to that used by Germany in the 1930s." The Leicester City legend was largely supported by his colleagues, with Alex Scott, Dion Dublin and Jermain Defoe also withdrawing from the programme in protest.
