22 Days to go! Club tour: Leicester City
Another club who quite happily pack their players off to the World Cup over the years... McAlister, Keller & Izzet in particular - being joined this year by Mahrez & Schlupp.
Which former Leicester City player won a World Cup whilst playing for the foxes?
Good Luck!

'He also bequeathed football a new technique. The “...... ....” -- a pirouette and dummy away from Sweden’s Jan Olsson to leave the full-back thrashing at air -- has been copied endlessly and is now part of any young footballer’s training.
Name the player whom this quote refers to...(he has 48 caps & 33 goals to his name!)
