Ex-Celtic boss Neil Lennon in frame to replace former Rangers boss in surprise move

Former Celtic manager Neil Lennon has emerged as a surprise candidate to replace Russell Martin at Leicester City. According to talkSPORT's Ben Jacobs, Leicester is actively succession planning amid mounting pressure on Martin following a 3-1 defeat to Peterborough. Jacobs noted that Lennon is interested in the managerial role at his former club, while Rob Edwards is also admired by the hierarchy.

Martin currently retains support from club owner Top, but growing fan discontent has intensified the club's struggles in League One. Lennon, who won ten trophies across two stints managing Celtic, previously played for Leicester and most recently led Scottish Championship club Dunfermline to the Scottish Cup final.
