Leicester City have expanded their pre-season preparations with a newly announced friendly against RC Lens, a Ligue 1 club. Scheduled for August 10 at 3pm in France, this match serves as the final warm-up before Steve Cooper’s team kicks off their Premier League campaign.
RC Lens, who finished seventh in Ligue 1 last season and participated in the Champions League, present a formidable challenge for the Foxes. Their second-place finish behind PSG in the 2022/23 season highlights their competitiveness, offering Leicester a robust test ahead of the new season.
This fixture marks the last chance for Leicester fans to see their team in action before the home match against Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur on August 19. Ticket details and information on how to follow the game via LCFC channels will be provided on the club’s website.
In addition, Leicester City has confirmed a pre-season fixture against League One’s Shrewsbury Town, further building anticipation as Steve Cooper prepares for his debut season in charge.
