'Leicester need to make a decision quickly'
Former Leicester City midfielder Dean Hammond says decisions on the Foxes' future need to be made quickly to provide clarity for told BBC Radio Leicester's When You're Smiling podcast: "The hardest thing in football is to make decisions, and I think the quicker you can make them, the better, because it gives everyone a bit of clarity and a bit of understanding and puts everyone at ease because they know what's happening and what's expected."Who's going to lead the team next season would be the biggest decision for me, because until it's decided whether Ruud van Nistelrooy stays or a new manager comes in, then I'm not sure how you plan."It's so important to have that person in place to start putting forward the direction of the football club for next season."The more time you get with the players you're going to work with for the majority of the season, the better time you're going to have to implement your playing style. "You need to get to know players. You need to build relationship with players. New players need to come in and settle. They need to understand how they're going to play and what is expected."Leicester City does not feel like a stable club in this moment, and I wonder, with that in mind, how important this summer overall really is for Leicester City, not just for now and for next season, but for what the club want to achieve in the next maybe five to 10 years."Listen to the full episode on BBC Sounds here
