Headlining the released list are Premier League title winners Wes Morgan and Christian Fuchs.

The other players being released are mostly youngsters: Azeem Abdulai, Dempsey Arlott-John, Darnell Johnson, Layton Ndukwu and Darragh O'Connor.

But Matty James is also being let go, having made just 15 league appearances for Leicester in the last six seasons.

James, 29, was integral to Leicester winning promotion to the Premier League in 2014, but missed all of the title-winning season through injury. He has since been on loan at Barnsley and Coventry.
