Roberts Advises Fuchs to Stay at Newport County

Posted on: 05/13/2026

Former Wales international Iwan Roberts has urged Christian Fuchs to remain in charge at Newport County, despite growing speculation linking the Austrian with the vacant managerial role at Leicester City. Fuchs, who won the Premier League title with Leicester in 2016, successfully led Newport to safety in League Two in his first full season as a permanent head coach. With Leicester now relegated to League One and seeking a new manager for their rebuilding phase, rumors have surfaced about Fuchs potentially returning to the King Power Stadium. However, Roberts believes the 39-year-old should prioritize stability and long-term development by staying with Newport, rather than rushing back to a club where he previously enjoyed success as a player.
