Leicester City draws League One opener against Notts County

Leicester City began their League One campaign with a draw against Notts County. The match marked the league debut for manager Russell Martin and several new players, including Jayden Joseph, who scored for the Foxes in the 62nd minute. However, Leicester conceded an equalizer through Conor Grant after defensive lapses.

Following the match, attention turned to the absence of young talent Louis Page from the squad. Despite interest from Premier League clubs including Manchester United, Arsenal, and Aston Villa, Martin explained that Page missed out on the bench because the team prioritized having an attacking selection for the substitutes. Martin noted that Page’s situation was “a completely different situation” compared to other players like Stephy Mavididi and Wout Faes, who were also absent from the lineup.
