Huddersfield boss Wagner, Nantes manager Conceicao turn down Leicester

Leicester City have had a number of approaches turned down by managerial targets.

The Foxes are hoping to swiftly replace the sacked Claudio Ranieri so they can focus on avoiding relegation this season.

But there have been a few issues in finding a new boss according to The Guardian.

Huddersfield Town's David Wagner has turned down the opportunity to take charge of the Foxes while Nantes boss Sergio Conceicao has already rebuffed an approach.

It is believed that 1860 Munich boss Vitor Pereira remains a possible candidate, alongside Guus Hiddink, who was approached over the weekend.

Ranieri's Italian compatriot Roberto Mancini is also in the frame.
