    Marti's Half Term Report

    "I think this is going to be the tightest Championship for a long, long time and it is the team that breaks out, the team that goes on that run and gives themselves a little bit of distance between the others.

    "For me, Leicester need a nine and a centre-half... but the rest of the team seem really strong, much stronger than any other team."

    Former Leicester City coach and caretaker manager Mike Stowell joins Jack Rafferty as they reflect on the season so far and how the side can move forward.

    Jordan Ayew has made 116 appearances for Ghana

    Leicester City forward Jordan Ayew scored the 33rd goal of his international career to help take Ghana to the brink of qualifying for next year's World Cup.

    The Black Stars' captain scored the fourth goal in a 5-0 thrashing of Central African Republic in Bangui on Wednesday.

    The result leaves Ghana needing just one point from their final group game at home to Comoros on Sunday to secure their place in the 2026 tournament, while defeat would push them into a play-off place.

    Ayew has scored seven goals in Ghana's qualifying campaign, in which they have lost just one game, going down 1-0 in Comoros in their second outing.
