Written by award-winning sports journalist Harry Harris, the book charts a season that began with the club predicted for relegation and ended in one of the greatest sporting upsets in history, priced at 5,000-1 by bookmakers before a ball was kicked. A must-read for football fans and anyone who loves an against-the-odds sporting story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom a predicted relegation battle, combined with the appointment of a new manager few fans initially favoured, this is the unique story of how Leicester City Football Club defied every prediction to complete a sporting feat so unlikely it was rated a 5,000-1 possibility by bookmakers. Weaving in the recent history of the Nigel Pearson era that preceded it, Harry Harris followed the remarkable 2015-16 Premier League season closely, producing this thrilling diary-style account of the impossible as it unfolded week by week. Drawing on reactions and insight from manager Claudio Ranieri, the players, backroom staff, football pundits and the passionate Leicester fanbase, the book builds the complete picture of how hard work, team spirit and unshakeable belief triumphed against overwhelming odds. It captures the tension of a title race that few saw coming, the tactical shrewdness of Ranieri's management, and the human stories behind a squad written off by almost everyone in the game. The result is both a celebration and a record of how Leicester City became Champions of England and earned the nickname 'The Immortals' - a story that resonated far beyond football and became one of the most talked-about sporting achievements of the decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete diary-style account of Leicester City's historic 2015-16 title-winning season\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by an award-winning, experienced football journalist and author\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes reactions and insight from Claudio Ranieri, players and staff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptures the context of the Nigel Pearson era leading into the triumph\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA genuine feel-good sporting story, perfect for football fans and gift-buyers alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback copy, ready for immediate dispatch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHarry Harris is an experienced and award-winning British sports journalist who has spent decades covering football at the highest level for major national newspapers.
