Sacked Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri features heavily on the front pages of the sports dailies in his native Italy as the football world reacted with shock to the news.
La Gazzetta dello Sport summed up the mood with their headline 'Ungrateful English', adding that 'Leicester have spoiled the fairytale that had enchanted the world.'
They picture a downcast Ranieri from a recent match and also one of the Italian preparing to lift the Premier League trophy at the end of last season.
'Premier League results and the locker room senators prove decisive,' they say, a reference to Leicester's precarious position one point and one place above the relegation zone.
