The origins of Leicester City, often referred to as The Foxes, dates back to 1884. Originally named Leicester Fosse because their first playing ground was next to the Fosse Road, the club joined the Football Association in 1890. They then turned professional in 1891 and entered The Football League two years later (source).

This was not always smooth sailing for them though. In fact, they faced relegation into Division Two only a few seasons after joining. The team bounced between divisions over these early years resulting in uncertainty and financial difficulty.

Noteworthy early players include Arthur Chandler who remains the club's top scorer with 273 goals (source)

One of Leicester's golden eras came under manager Matt Gillies from 1958-1968 - particularly during his fruitful partnership with assistant Bert Johnson. Together they took Leicester to two FA Cup finals (in '61 & '63), four top six finishes (including a runners-up spot), and winning the League Cup in ’64 (source).

However, nothing compares to their miraculous Premier League win led by Claudio Ranieri in 2016 - defying odds of 5000-1! This season saw incredible performances from key players like Jamie Vardy – who broke records by scoring consecutively for eleven games – Riyad Mahrez, N'Golo Kanté among others.

Arguably one of their most iconic moments is Andrea Bocelli’s serenade before lifting their Premier league trophy at King Power Stadium Here.

Leicester City's main rival is Nottingham Forest. The rivalry dates back to 1908 and having contested more than a hundred matches, the atmosphere during these games can be particularly intense (source).

These derby matches are an important part of Leicester’s identity with fans often stating that beating their rivals is as satisfying as winning a trophy.

The King Power Stadium has been Leicester‘s home since 2002, when they moved from Filbert Street - their original ground for over a century. With a capacity of just over 32,000, it provides an intimate setting that genuinely gives them the advantage of intimidating oppositions (source).

A memorable moment was the last home game against Everton in 2016 where they lifted the Premier League trophy in front of adoring fans.

Leicester City have loyal supporters who hail from various demographics and locations around the world. Notable fan groups include ‘Union FS’ known for their vocal support through chants such as "Jamie Vardy's Having A Party" which resonated throughout their incredible title-winning season.

The club also annually celebrates 'King Power Day' on December 26th to honor its late chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha source
