Leicester City have brought in Gary Rowett for the last 14 games of the season as they aim to avoid consecutive relegations.
The 51-year-old spent two years with the Foxes as a player, and has since managed almost 600 games at the likes of Burton Albion, Derby County, Stoke City and Millwall.
His most recent post was at Oxford United, who he kept in the Championship last season, before being sacked in December 2025.
Prior to that year with the U’s, he took charge for the last eight games of the 2023/24 season at Birmingham City, failing to avoid the drop to League One.
