Gary Lineker has recommended Leicester City take a gamble on their next managerial option after Steve Cooper was dismissed on Sunday.

He was appointed as Enzo Maresca's replacement in the summer after the Italian joined Chelsea but, after a run of four games without a win, was poetically sacked the day after Leicester lost 2-1 at home to Maresca's side.
