Graham Potter confirmed as pundit for Leicester City vs West Ham

Amazon Prime confirmed that former Chelsea and Brighton & Hove Albion boss Graham Potter would be a part of the punditry team.

Potter turned down the Leicester job for the third time after being approached on two previous occasions.

Former BBC presenter Dan Walker will be on hosting duties and joining Potter be former Leicester striker Emile Heskey, who expressed concerns over Van Nistelrooy’s appointment, and ex-West Ham midfielder Kevin Nolan.

It’s likely that Potter will be asked about the Leicester job and his decision not to take it, as well as how close he was to taking it in the summer, which will have the attention of Foxes fans.
