AdminLeicester City have confirmed the appointment their New coach as the club’s new manager following days of speculation surrounding the future of Gary Rowett.
The Foxes moved quickly to finalise their decision after holding discussions with several candidates, eventually turning to Ferguson as the man they believe can guide the club forward ahead of the new campaign.
The announcement was made on Tuesday morning, with Leicester officials describing the former Peterborough United boss as the right fit for the project at the King Power Stadium.
Ferguson arrives with a strong reputation for developing young players and building competitive sides capable of challenging under pressure.
His experience in English football played a major role in Leicester’s decision, particularly at a time when the club are looking to rebuild and restore stability after a difficult period.
Supporters reacted with mixed emotions following the announcement. While some fans welcomed the appointment and praised Ferguson’s experience, others questioned whether the club should have pursued a manager with Premier League pedigree.
Gary Rowett had also been heavily linked with the role in recent days, but Leicester’s hierarchy ultimately decided to move in a different direction after internal discussions.
Ferguson is expected to meet the players later this week as preparations begin for pre-season, with supporters now eager to see what changes he will bring to the squad.
