June 15 (Reuters) - Leicester City have appointed Russell Martin as their new manager on a three-year contract, the League One club announced on Monday, as they look to rebuild following their relegation to the third tier of English soccer.
The 40-year-old former Scotland international takes over immediately on a deal until 2029, tasked with stabilising a club that won the Premier League title just a decade ago but were relegated to League One in April, a second consecutive relegation after being sent down from the Premier League the season before.
