Local Youth Team Visit Foxes On Day Three
- Thonon Évian FC visited Leicester City’s stars following a morning training session on Wednesday
- The local side’s youngsters had the opportunity to meet the Foxes in Évian
- City have now trained five times in the French Alps
Players from the local side’s Under-10s to Under-15s squads watched on as City completed their fifth training session in Évian-les-Bains, where they have been based since Sunday evening.
Brendan Rodgers’ men resumed their pre-season work in the mid-morning, with blue skies and 25 degree Celsius temperatures providing the perfect conditions for another spell of training.
Afterwards, the Club’s stars signed autographs and took photos with some of the youngsters, who one day will hope to become professional footballers themselves.
Speaking to LCFC TV after day three’s session, Christian Fuchs said: “It has been really tough session so far. We had our fifth session today after three days.
"This afternoon, [we’ll have] some recovery. I think it’s just the right time for a break to recover your body."
Following a spot of lunch, the Foxes took some downtime in the afternoon and will join club staff later in the day for a barbecue in Évian’s low evening sun.
