Nigel Pearson wants Leicester City return

Hull City manager Nigel Pearson wants a return to Leicester City, but will need to agree a compensation deal with the Tigers.

The Foxes will have to pay out £350,000 to acquire the 48-year-old's services, according to The Mirror.

Leicester have been looking for a new boss since they sacked Sven-Goran Eriksson last month.

Pearson remained coy over his Hull future when asked after Saturday's 2-0 defeat at home to West Ham United.
