Jailed Leicester players pin hopes on top lawyers

THREE Premiership footballers at the centre of sex assault allegations made by three women were yesterday pinning their hopes for freedom on a team of top lawyers.

Leicester City captain Paul Dickov, Keith Gillespie and Frank Sinclair were believed to be in prison with rapists, paedophiles and other sex offenders.

But lawyers and club officials were expected to fly out to Spain to seek their release on bail.
