Leicester City are considering Brentford’s coach Thomas Frank as an option if they sack under fire Brendan Rodgers.
The Foxes are currently bottom of the Premier League table and have suffered two heavy defeats in their last two games.
Leicester shipped five goals at Brighton a fortnight ago and they were beaten 6-2 by Tottenham last weekend.
Rodgers insists he is still confident of turning around their disastrous start to the new season. He said: “It is a challenge I will relish because I have never had this spell before in my career. It is definitely something I want to continue.
“There is no doubt the first seven games we’ve had a tough start. We’ve had Tottenham away, Arsenal away, Chelsea away. Manchester United at home and couple of the others we should win.
“It is probably a good time for us to reset everything and break the cycle of the summer as well.
“The owners, they will do what it is they feel they need to do. I am not daft. I know football.
“The last six games, losing, it does not make good reading, but I have every confidence the team can push on and if they play like they did for large parts, cut out mistakes, then they can climb the table.”
