Nigel Pearson could return to the manager position at Leicester City.

Hull City boss Nigel Pearson is being considered as the new manager of Leicester City, according to The Mirror.

The 48-year-old, who previously completed a managerial stint at Leicester, is thought to be a major contender for the role left by Sven-Goran Eriksson.

The former Middlesbrough defender left the Foxes last year after a reported rift with previous owner Milan Mandaric.

With the club being under new ownership, the Hull boss may ponder a return to the Championship side.
