Perfect Foxes start
Leicester City sit top of the Championship table after the opening four games of the season. Following a late winner against Coventry City, the Foxes have picked up more comfortable wins against Huddersfield Town and Cardiff City as well as a win on Saturday against Rotherham United.
The Foxes are two points ahead of both Norwich City and Birmingham City in the second tier and remain the only side in the EFL that has a 100% record.

News of Castagne’s incoming departure will bring the end of an era for the Belgium, who has been a very successful addition for the Championship side. However, he hasn’t featured once this season and despite his qualities, he won’t be considered as a major loss for the club.
It will be a sad sight for many Leicester supporters but you cannot blame Castagne for wanting to remain in the Premier League and he will likely become an important figure for Marco Silva’s Fulham side in the top flight.
