Wise ponders next move after sacking
Dennis Wise is considering legal action against Leicester following his sacking and will make his decision within the next few days, according to agent Eric Hall.
The former England midfielder was sacked by the Foxes after an incident involving team-mate Callum Davidson during the club’s pre-season tour of Finland.
Wise had taken the matter to the Football League’s Football Disciplinary Commission, who told Leicester they could only fine him and were not allowed to terminate his contract.
But City appealed to the League’s Appeals Committee who yesterday found in their favour after a six-hour hearing.
Hall told BBC Radio 5 Live: “Of course we can take monster, monster legal action if we want to, we haven’t decided.
“He is a million miles away. He is shocked at what has happened.
“He has got to sit back now and have proper talks with me and his legal people . Realistically in the next two of three days he will make a decision.
“What they did yesterday, if it’s upheld, sets a precedent in football. If you have a big fight or a small fight you don’t go round sacking players.
“If you got every single club from the Premiership to the Third Division there are fights every day.
“It’s private. These things happen. There’s never been a player sacked for this.”
But Hall insisted the incident would not mark the end of the former England international’s career, insisting he would return “sooner than you expect”.
