Pearson guided Leicester to four wins and two draws last month, a run that has taken the Foxes to the brink of promotion.

One of those victories was a vital 2-0 triumph at promotion rivals Burnley.

Leicester could reach the Premier League this weekend if they beat Sheffield Wednesday and other results go their way.
