AdminChristian Fuchs rolled back the years at the King Power Stadium as Leicester City celebrated the 10th anniversary of their unforgettable Premier League title triumph.
A key figure in Claudio Ranieri’s history-making side, Fuchs returned for the charity match marking the Foxes’ remarkable 2015-16 success.
The Austrian remains one of the most popular members of that squad, having played a vital role in Leicester’s greatest achievement.
Reflecting on his time at the club, Fuchs singled out one moment above all others – his famous assist for Jamie Vardy against Manchester United, which helped the striker break the Premier League record for scoring in consecutive matches.
Speaking about the pass, Fuchs admitted there was an element of theatre behind it.
“And the no-look pass that split Manchester United’s defence up? “That was pure show. I saw him running, I knew I needed to play the ball [and] I was like ‘let’s add something more to it if it goes in.'”
The assist remains one of the defining images of Leicester’s title-winning season, perfectly capturing the confidence and chemistry within Ranieri’s side.
The anniversary event also served as a reminder of how extraordinary that achievement was.
A decade after defying 5,000-1 odds to become champions of England, Leicester supporters gathered once more to celebrate the team that delivered one of football’s greatest stories.
