Leicester loans manager David Fox is set to leave the club after just two weeks to join Plymouth Argyle.

Sources have told BBC Sport the 41-year-old will become Argyle's new head of football operations as the club plots their return to the Championship.

Fox finished his career with a three-year spell at Home Park, making 142 appearances, and returns after the club was relegated to League One on the final day of the season.

Fox, who also played for Norwich, Blackpool, Colchester and Crewe, had previously been loans manager at Huddersfield and has only been at King Power Stadium a matter of weeks.

A new head of recruitment is also expected to be named by Plymouth to replace Jimmy Dickinson, who is joining Bolton to reunited with former Argyle boss Steven Schumacher.

Rumour has it Big Guy’s got the call back after an outstanding job defending Rudkin publicly on the pod. Any kid under 6ft 4, or who can’t kick people, isn’t getting a loan because they’ll never make it at the top level.

It's a great so called appointment!
