Leicester hit their lowest ebb – but is Martin turning things around?

Leicester are in League One after a sharp fall from their Premier League and FA Cup highs, compounded by financial problems and points deductions. Two consecutive wins, including a 4-0 victory over Bromley, have eased pressure on head coach Russell Martin and raised hopes that the club may be starting to recover.

The club operated under a five-week transfer embargo this summer, linked to EFL spending rules, and could not sign players until it raised funds. In a major squad reset, 34 players left and 16 arrived, with 66% of the squad joining after the season began. Martin has also introduced stricter standards at the training ground as Leicester try to rebuild team culture and reconnect with supporters.
