Leicester at the Premier League crossroads as they consider three replacements for Enzo Maresca

As if this ongoing confusion wasn’t muddying the waters enough, decision makers are weighing how to approach the upcoming season. Leicester have followed a path back to the Premier League through a progressive style of football – one that has led Todd Boehly & Co. to approach former Juventus star Maresca.

But the club must now decide whether to continue with the policy – it would signal an approach for former Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper. Alternatively, Leicester can look for an experienced pair of hands to help them through the choppy waters.

An independent commission will set the date by which the club can expect to find out if it has been charged for breaching Premier League rules. And if the club ends up with a points deduction, the list of those willing to take on the task will shorten considerably.

West Brom’s Carlos Corberan will be among those in the squad, but Marcelo Bielsa’s former pupil is under contract at the Hawthorns. One name that will be considered is former Manchester United and West Ham boss David Moyes.

The Scot led the Hammers to their first trophy in over 40 years when he guided them to Europa Conference League glory last May. Moyes left the East End club by mutual consent last month but remains keen to stay in charge and the size of the job with the former Premier League champions is sure to appeal.
