Leicester City
🏴 Premier League · England
📖 Club History
Leicester City's 2015/16 Premier League title win is arguably the greatest sporting upset in history. A club given 5000-1 odds of winning the title at the start of the season, led by Claudio Ranieri, defied every prediction to become champions with a squad built on teamwork, tactical discipline and Jamie Vardy's extraordinary goals. The tragic helicopter crash that killed owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha in 2018 devastated the club. After relegation in 2023 and 2024, Leicester are rebuilding.
