Last updated : 04 January 2014 By Covsupport News Service

Former Coventry City Head Groundsman John Ledwidge has left the Ricoh Arena to join Leicester City FC.

Ledwidge had been involved with City for a number of seasons before moving to the Ricoh Arena earlier this year. However, little football taking place at the Ricoh Arena, Ledwidge is moving up the M69 to Leicester.

Ledwidge said on his Facebook page: "With a heavy heart, I can confirm Ii am set to leave the Ricoh Arena for a new challenge at Leicester City Football Club.

"I have had the most amazing time working for Coventry City and The Ricoh Arena. Both are full of wonderful people who i can only thank for making my time so enjoyable... its time for a new chapter and hopefully realise my dream of working in the Premier League before I'm thirty.

"The club, the arena and all the wonderful people ive met i will forever hold close to my heart.

"Forever a sky blue... PUSB"
