Background: Football is a complex game as it requires much game plan, different strategies according to opponents with some statistics. It was a fairy-tale for the sporting world as an underdog team went on to win the premiership with making their core team strong. In this paper, the season 2015/16 of premier league has been investigated and the researcher has analysed how Leicester City emerged as the champions and what went wrong with the big clubs, looking at Leicester City's last 5 years journey against all odds and logic. Two major aspects of the footballing world have been mentioned which have a great influence and impact on the team's performance i.e. Transfer market and Manager's impact. Methods: The data was collected through Several journals, research papers, blogs, newspapers, and articles. Conclusion:The club's signing of players was outstanding in the transfer window and the team got good players in reasonable amounts. The manager's game plans and strategies with the team's efforts lead them to success. Their ball possession was negligible while they excelled when it came to counterattack. Finally, they have bagged the title with team effort. We cannot say that it was all about luck as a lot of team involvement was seen and everything felt in the right places at the right time. Indeed, it was a roller coaster ride for them.
