Leicester City will hold internal talks regarding the future of Brendan Rodgers as manager, according to Fabrizio Romano.   

The Lowdown: Six defeats in a row

The Foxes fell to yet another Premier League defeat on Saturday evening, this time against Tottenham. Rodgers’ side took the lead early on and looked promising in spells, but Heung-min Son’s second half hat-trick ensured a heavy 6-2 defeat.

Their sixth successive top-flight reverse leaves Leicester rock bottom of the Premier League heading into the international break, and it looks as if the walls could be closing in on the 49-year-old.

The Latest: Romano’s update

Speaking to CaughtOffside in a story shared on Sunday morning, Romano had his say on Rodgers’ future at the King Power Stadium, claiming that there will be internal talks ‘in the next hours and days’.

The Italian stated:

“For sure, the situation at Leicester is worrying. Brendan Rodgers’ future will be discussed internally in the next hours and days, no decision yet as of last night.”

The Verdict: Matter of time?

If the club decide to go their separate ways with Rodgers, now could be the perfect time to make that call.

The international break will give Leicester officials an extended period to bring in a potential successor, with Thomas Frank and Sean Dyche two names to have already been mentioned.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, but it looks as if there could be some important conversations ongoing at the King Power Stadium today.
