THE BIGGER PICTURE: Leicester, who sacked Brendan Rodgers this week, have been linked with numerous candidates, with the club entering the weekend sitting 19th in the Premier League.

Rafa Benitez and Sam Allardyce have also been linked with the role, but Marsch has indicated that he would be willing to consider staying on at the club should they be relegated to the Championship.
