Seven leftfield Leicester City new manager options as search takes twist
While many of the names being linked to Leicester City are familiar, here's a few who might not known so well to supporters, with most spending their careers overseas

ByJordan Blackwell

 

Names are swirling as Leicester City search for a new manager, with a leading contender for the job yet to emerge.

Graham Potter and David Moyes are unlikely to be the next man in the dugout, opening the door for Ruud van Nistelrooy, Carlos Corberan, and Michael Carrick to come into consideration. But what about other possibilities?

 

With no candidate yet emerging as the frontrunner, City could be looking outside of their usual field. Here’s a rundown of some of the leftfield names.

 

Edin Terzic

Heavily linked to the West Ham job amid Julen Lopetegui’s early struggles, managing a club to a Champions League final will naturally bring suitors. After losing to Real Madrid with Borussia Dortmund in the continent’s showpiece occasion last season, he chose to leave the German club and is now without work.

 

Lucien Favre

Out of work for nearly two years now, 67-year-old Favre would be a surprise appointment. But he does have plenty of pedigree, especially for taking mid-ranking clubs into the upper echelons, doing so with Borussia Monchengladbach and Nice.

 

Roger Schmidt

Successful at pretty much every club he has managed, Schmidt is not shy of travelling outside of his comfort zone, having managed in Germany, Austria, China, Netherlands and Portugal. He did very well with Bayer Leverkusen and won the 22-23 Portuguese title with Benfica before being sacked this August. He has managed against City previously, with PSV in the Europa Conference League quarter-finals.

 

Daniele De Rossi

A Roma legend, De Rossi was given the chance to manage the club this year, taking over from Jose Mourinho on a short-term basis initially. Taking the club to the Europa League semis, he did well enough to earn an extended stay, but was then sacked four Serie A games into this season. He’s not worked outside Italy.

 

Carlos Cuesta

Appointing a big club’s assistant manager worked for City with Enzo Maresca, and Cuesta is building quite a reputation for himself alongside Mikel Arteta at Arsenal. He never played the game professionally and was coaching in Atletico Madrid’s academy by 18. He’s still only 29, which makes him younger than seven members of City’s squad.

 

Kjetil Knutsen

Bodo/Glimt’s success may not have gone unnoticed in recent years, the Norwegian side defying expectations to make a name for themselves in Europe, especially when they beat Mourinho’s Roma 6-1. Knutsen has been in charge there for the past six years, winning three national titles in that time.

 

Sergio Conceicao

A three-time league winner and four-time cup winner in Portugal with Porto, Conceicao ended his seven-year spell there this summer, despite signing a new four-year contract just a couple of months earlier. He’s been linked to West Ham and Wolves in recent weeks.

You'll never guess who Van Der Sar's agent is.... 

 

He's not a DOF. 

 

He was the CEO and before that some lesser director over non footballing functions. Something daft like corporate hospitality or whatever. 

 

Overmars was the DOF and was pretty decent. He just was also a sex pest so yknow.

Ruud could be a good fit, my only question mark, is his experience which is lacking at this level managerially. But in the grand scheme of things look he has played football at the highest level, has also managed PSV and Manchester United as a caretaker. His football philosophy is aligned with Top’s in possession based football with attacking intent all in all it would be a solid with a slight risk appointment, but one we should go for.

Also worth pointing out, he's been a coach for over 10 years. This is not a bloke who on the back of an extremely successful playing career has gone straight in to management at the highest level and is a complete unknown.

 

He's been selected as assistant twice for the Dutch national team under Hiddink and Koeman and Ten Hag must have been ecstatic when he agreed to go to Utd last summer given his output as PSV manager is not to be sniffed at.

 

He's a risk of course, we're looking at a scenario where we opt for a manager who progresses exponentially ala Alonso or at least Maresca to a lesser degree. But I like that idea over a perceived safe pair of hands which is comparable to the myth of Premier League experience as a player that often is no more of a guarantee of success and usually very costly in comparison.

See, someone reads Foxes Talk. Done the complete lack of research on Conceicao that many posters on here have in that he doesn’t seem to want to leave Portugal and quit his only job outside the country to move back there.

Are they just waiting for the WBA game tonight before anything is done with Corberan. Would imagine WBA wouldn't have wanted anything to be discussed or announced before tonight

We need someone announced today ideally. Or early tomorrow at a push to have any influence on Saturday's game. Still scarred by seeing Dumb & Dumber drop crucial points to relegation rivals while we faffed around to get Dean Smith

Forget Saturday. 

 

Even if we hire someone in the next hour, they're going to have a limited impact before the weekend. 

 

Just gonna have to accept the Brentford game is a free hit under the circumstances.

Thanks – I can teach you how to be funny if you like? DMs open for those in need

 

This is a trap. 

 

You message him for his humour based help and just get sent a link to his OnlyFans. 

 

Save yourself the time.

You're a brave man if you're making that up lol

Could be the biggest foxestalk lynching since Bert claimed Rodgers had been sacked because of a WhatsApp group message or something.
