Leicester City vice-chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha has vowed to back manager Brendan Rodgers in the transfer market.

Speaking in his column in today’s final matchday magazine of the season, Aiyawatt, known affectionately as Top, said he would continue to back the manager to strengthen the squad as his late father Khun Vichai had always done.

Rodgers is expected to bring in at least five new players this summer and despite the death of his father and the commitment to the £100 million new training ground, Top said Rodgers would be given the funds.

“We’re approaching our tenth season with Leicester City and I’m confident our supporters will now be familiar with our approach,” he said.

“We want to improve all aspects of the club to make the club sustainably successful for generations to come.

“We will always make support available to areas of the club that need strengthening, whether that’s the playing squad, the training ground, the stadium, staffing and infrastructure or the continued fostering of a healthy relationship with our supporters and our community.

“The evolution of the squad is a constant process that benefits from the input of some highly skilled professionals at the club, including the manager.

“If a requirement for the squad is recognised and suitable talent identified, we’re always ready to support progress and improvement.”
