Jamie Vardy is the ONLY star left from Leicester’s title-winning team – here’s where they are TODAY

Leicester winger Marc Albrighton completed his loan switch to West Brom on deadline day

For the club that brought one of the most memorable moments in Premier League history, it’s been a remarkably forgettable season at the King Power.

In the years that followed Leicester’s fairytale title triumph in 2015-16, the Foxes flirted with the Premier League’s elite, enjoyed Champions League and Europa League football and lifted the FA Cup in 2021.

But fast forward to this season, and head coach Brendan Rodgers is facing a battle against relegation, with Leicester teetering one point above the drop zone.

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end, and the legacy of Leicester’s triumphant team under Claudio Ranieri has almost entirely left the King Power.

Now, after Marc Albrighton’s deadline day loan switch to West Bromwich Albion, only Jamie Vardy remains – and even he is enduring a career-low season in terms of goals and assists at the club.

With just one title-winning Fox left in the den, Sportsmail takes a look at where Leicester’s legends are today.

Kasper Schmeichel

The Danish stopper opted for a fresh start this summer after 11 years at the King Power, completing a shock free transfer to Nice in August.

Enduring a tricky introduction, the 36-year-old’s entourage asked owner Jim Ratcliffe to start him in the first match of the season, but Schmeichel found himself on the bench instead, having reportedly arrived with a ‘very high’ body fat percentage.

The Dane has since proved his worth at the French club, starting 18 league matches to help Nice boast the fourth-best defensive record in Ligue 1 behind leaders PSG, Lens and Marseille.
