Leicester City lost their manager in the summer when Enzo Maresca joined Chelsea after winning promotion with them.
Not only did they lose their manager, but also their best player in Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall who followed Maresca to Chelsea.
Leicester City appointed Steve Cooper as they prepare for the new Premier League season, but it hasn’t gone well for them so far.
They are currently 15th in the league, just five points above the relegation zone and some of their recent results have raised questions about Cooper’s future.
according to Football InsiderCooper’s future at Leicester is still in doubt even after his side grabbed a late equalizer against Ipswich at the weekend.
Jordan Ayew’s late goal salvaged a point for Leicester against Ipswich, but that has changed nothing regarding the manager’s future at the King Power Stadium.
Cooper was booed by his own supporters as the Foxes were beaten 3-1 by Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
The manager’s job is only secure until the November international break and he would need a major turnaround in results to secure his future at the club.
The new Premier League club are not currently in crisis and their position in the league is not too worrying, but the club’s hierarchy expect better from the team that comfortably won the championship last season.

The coach has not managed to win over the players and the club officials know it.
One or two more poor results could lead to the club making a final decision on Cooper’s future at the club as they are prepared to do whatever it takes to stay in the top flight this season.
Cooper needs results in his favor to keep his job at the King Power Stadium.
