AdminLeicester City have set their sights firmly on promotion, with a 90-point target established as the benchmark for success this season.
There is understood to be a clear roadmap in place to help the club reach that figure, with the focus now firmly on building consistency and putting together the results required over the course of the campaign.
The scale of the summer rebuild has been significant. Eighteen players departed the club, while fourteen new arrivals were brought in as Leicester reshaped their squad for life in League One.
The changes have also had a major impact on the club’s finances. Leicester’s wage bill is understood to have been reduced by 60 per cent compared with last season, reflecting a deliberate effort to bring the club’s spending more in line with its current circumstances.
Despite the extensive turnover, the expectation remains that the squad has been assembled with promotion firmly in mind.
Reaching 90 points would represent a substantial achievement and could put Leicester in a strong position to secure their return to the Championship.
For manager Russell Martin, the challenge will now be turning the summer overhaul into a team capable of delivering consistently on the pitch.
With a defined points target and a roadmap already established, Leicester’s campaign will be measured against a clear objective as they look to begin another push back up the English football pyramid.
