AdminLeicester City manager Russell Martin is facing growing uncertainty over his future, with the club’s board reportedly exploring potential replacements following the disappointing 3-1 defeat to Peterborough United.
The Foxes sit 17th in League One after a difficult start to the campaign, raising serious concerns among senior figures.
Supporter frustration is also increasing, with the atmosphere around the King Power Stadium described as toxic.
Sources suggest the club’s hierarchy is actively considering alternatives, with the coming days potentially decisive for Martin’s future.
Pundit Tony Cascarino believes the pressure is mounting on the 40-year-old, who has recorded just four wins in 12 matches since taking charge.
“It’s a big result for him [Robbie Savage] and Peterborough, but Leicester, well, it’s doomsday at Leicester, it really is. Whatever is happening at that football club…” he began on talkSPORT.
“Leicester had loads more passes as you’d expect, but the bottom line is, the same argument is always being made.
“And Martin can come out and say nothing’s going to change with a new manager.
“Well, it will change, he will lose his job if he can’t find results.”
Cascarino also criticised Martin’s insistence on possession-based football, arguing that the manager must adapt his tactics to improve results.
“You can play whatever way you want, whatever style you want, but if you’re losing games, then why you do coaching badges is to adapt, sometimes you have to do things you might not like.
“You might not think this is my tactic, but this is the right thing for the team – at the moment, they’re losing a lot of football matches.”
He added that finding a winning formula is now essential if Martin hopes to save his job.
