Leicester's 'pinch-me' moments recalled ahead of League One return

Leicester City are bracing for a new season in League One, but the memories of a decade ago remain vivid. Ten years on from defending their Premier League title, the club's remarkable rise is being remembered as a period of surreal, 'pinch-me' moments.

According to BBC Sport, those moments included a secret invite that left the squad in disbelief. As Leicester prepare to drop into the third tier for the first time in over a decade, the fairy-tale era has not been forgotten.

The contrast between then and now could hardly be starker. In 2016, Leicester stunned English football by winning the Premier League; a year later, they began the season as defending champions before a gradual decline set in. Now, a new chapter begins, but those dream moments remain a touchstone for supporters.

While the road back is uncertain, the club can lean on that history. Fans can relive the highlights of those unforgettable matches right here on this site. For now, Leicester's focus is squarely on the challenge of League One, but the memories of the miracle season endure.
