Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri welcomes N'Golo Kante back to the King Power Stadium by putting the Chelsea midfielder in a headlock

Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri welcomed Chelsea's players for their game on Saturday with handshakes and smiles, but was much more physical with one player.

Among Chelsea's squad was N'Golo Kante, who was central to Leicester's astonishing title win last season before joining the Clues in a £30m move last summer, and has helped them reach the top of the Premier League.

When former Blues boss Ranieri got to Kante in the line, he immediately seized the diminutive Frenchman, pulled his head under his arm and gave him a couple of slaps on the back.
