A spokesperson for JD said: “We’re delighted to be expanding our store at Fosse Park. Our bigger location will enable us to provide customers with an even wider range of products from the biggest sportswear brands.”

JD will continue to operate multiple stores in Leicester including a unit in the Highcross shopping centre.
