Mandaric looks forward to Foxes challenge

Prospective Leicester owner Milan Mandaric insists he is relishing the "challenge" of restoring the club to the Premiership as he prepares to meet club directors next week.

The Foxes' board of directors confirmed on Friday that Mandaric had made a formal offer to purchase a controlling stake in the club and Mandaric is hopeful he can bring as much success to the Walkers Stadium as he did to his former club Portsmouth.
