As well as this, Morgan will be answering fans questions, while Matt Elliott, Muzzy Izzet, Gerry Taggart, Alan Birchenall and Steve Walsh are all set to make an appearance. 

Leicester start their season away at Manchester United on August 11th before entertaining newly promoted Wolves at the King Power Stadium. Claude Puel's side end the opening month with an away trip to St. Mary's to face Southampton where Puel will face his former employers.
