Leicester City mark 10 years since their incredible Premier League title win next month, but what are the stars of that triumph doing now? According to FourFourTwo, the key figures from that season are scattered across the football world.
The Foxes’ remarkable title success in 2016 was one of the greatest sporting upsets in history, with Claudio Ranieri’s team defeating odds of 5000-1 to claim the Premier League crown.
Key figures
The Leicester City squad of 2015-2016 was a talented group of players, and many have gone on to achieve great things since their title-winning season. Jamie Vardy, the Foxes’ prolific striker, is still playing for the club, having signed a new contract in 2020.
Other key players from that season, such as Kasper Schmeichel, Wes Morgan, and Riyad Mahrez, have all moved on to bigger clubs. Mahrez, in particular, has become a key player for Manchester City, winning multiple Premier League titles and the FA Cup.
Reaction
The Leicester City squad of 2016 was a tight-knit group, and many of the players have spoken fondly of their time at the club. ‘We were like a family,’ said Jamie Vardy in a recent interview. ‘We all knew each other’s strengths and weaknesses, and we worked together to achieve something special.’
The Foxes’ title win in 2016 was a testament to the team’s hard work and dedication. The squad’s success was not just a one-off, but a culmination of years of effort and perseverance.
