Leicester City's 2015-16 Premier League title-winning squad is planning a reunion in 2026 to mark the 10-year anniversary of their historic triumph. Danny Simpson, who made 30 league appearances that season, revealed that former teammates are staying in touch through a WhatsApp group named Reunion 2026. He confirmed that discussions are ongoing to organise a gathering, with the aim of bringing together players who achieved one of football's most improbable victories. Simpson mentioned he has been in contact with Riyad Mahrez, who now plays for Al-Ahli in the Saudi Pro League, and believes all members are eager to attend. The reunion would celebrate the team that defied 5000/1 odds to win the title, finishing ahead of clubs like Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. Simpson described the current state of Leicester City, now in the Championship, as "sad," noting the club's recent struggles after past successes including an FA Cup win and a near-miss on Champions League qualification. He stressed the importance of the club rediscovering its identity and reconnecting with supporters.
The reunion plans highlight how tightly knit that Leicester squad remains, even as the club flounders a decade later. Simpson's comment about the team needing to "get its identity back" rings true — the same unity that drove their title win is now absent on the pitch. While the players prepare to celebrate their legacy, the current squad has yet to recapture the spirit that defined their peak.
