Claudio Ranieri says Leicester City’s secret is ‘the players’ heart and soul’ after clinching the Premier League title.
The former Roma, Juventus and Inter Coach was ensured a sensational league win for the Foxes last night after a 2-2 draw between Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur guaranteed top spot.
The achievement has been heralded as one of the greatest in the history of the English game and marks the first league title of Ranieri’s 30-year career as a tactician.
"I feel good, you can imagine," Ranieri told Sky Sports News HQ.
"I was home to watch the match. I had lunch with my mother then I came back with our plane and arrived at 7 o'clock and at 8 o'clock, I watched the match. The emotions were at the maximum.
"I don't know the secret. I think the players, their heart and their soul won it.
"It means the job is good. I am very, very happy now because if I won this title at the beginning of my career, maybe I would have forgotten it by now.
"No, now I am a very, very old man and I can feel much better.
"I say every time I am very happy for the fans, the chairman, and everybody, for all of the Leicester community.
"We want to improve. We want to improve a lot."
